Why is my 2 year old hands and feet cold?
What Is Raynaud’s Syndrome? Raynaud’s syndrome is a condition that makes a person’s fingers or toes temporarily feel cold, numb, tingly, or painful. When a child has a Raynaud’s (ray-NOZE) episode, blood vessels become narrow, so less blood gets to the affected area.
What causes poor circulation in toddlers?
Raynaud’s phenomenon in children and adolescents is caused by overly sensitive blood vessels in the fingers and toes that are more affected by cold and stress. These blood vessels “spasm” and constrict (narrow), which causes a decrease in blood flow and the changes in color.
Why does my toddler’s feet turn out?
Your 2 or 3-year-old child’s feet may turn outward when walking for a variety of reasons. The feet themselves may be twisted out, or they may point out because the shin is rotated outward below the knee. Rotation can also occur in the thigh, and even the hip joint may have an abnormal alignment (femoral retroversion).
