Cold feet can be due to various reasons such as decreased blood circulation to the extremities due to atherosclerosis that is cholesterol deposition in blood vessels, nerve damage - nerves that detect temperature are not working, lean body - persons who have less body fat need to conserve more heat which happens by feet becoming cold to keep internal organs warm, normal response to cold climate.

I had dengue a month ago, and my platelets dropped to 18k. I got treated in the hospital and felt better after. The first week was okay, just a bit of tiredness. But now, during the day, I'm feeling way more tired and low on energy. I went back to the doctor and did blood tests again, and they said everything's normal, but I'm still feeling worn out daily. There's a slight improvement, but it's really slow. Also, I have cervical issues. Any idea what could be going on?
