My 11 year old daughter is complaining of being cold but she does not have a fever. She is still active and playing as usual but is always complaining of being cold. What to do?

She should be evaluated as she could have a medical condition that is causing this. One commmon disease that often causes you to feel cold is Hypothroidism. Also poor circulation can cause you to feel cold easily. I have had poor circultation for a long time and am often more cold than the next person.

Thank you for the reply. I have an appointment for my daughter with the doctor tomorrow. Will let you know what is decided. Thanks again.
