Why is my body warm but my feet are cold?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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.

View allI'm just wondering about my follow-up appointment. I came to your clinic for a check-up last week, and the doctor mentioned I should come again after 3 weeks. So, I'm curious if that follow-up visit is free, or will there be a charge for it?
yes

I'm wondering, after how many days of having a common cold can my mom safely get her second dose of Covishield? It's already time for her to get it, but she recently had a cold that's mostly under control now, though she's still got a bit of a cough. Is it okay for her to take the vaccine now, or would it be a problem if she delays the second dose because the vaccine isn't available?
take after symptoms gets relieved. you can delay second dose of vaccination

I've been sleeping with the AC on and now I've caught a cold, cough, and even a mild fever thats been bugging me since yesterday. I want to know if taking Paracetamol would be a wise choice, or should I just wait for it to pass on its own? By the way, I just finished an antibiotic course last week after a tooth extraction.
Given your recent antibiotic course and current symptoms, it's essential to be cautious. Paracetamol can help alleviate your mild fever, cold, and cough symptoms. However, consider the following: _Paracetamol Precautions_ 1. _Dosage_: Take the recommended dose (500-1000 mg) every 4-6 hours, not exceeding 4000 mg in 24 hours. 2. _Liver health_: Since you've had a recent antibiotic course, your liver might be under stress. Paracetamol can also affect liver function, so monitor your body's response. 3. _Underlying conditions_: If you have any underlying medical conditions, such as liver or kidney disease, consult your doctor before taking Paracetamol. _Alternative Options_ 1. _Rest and hydration_: Focus on getting plenty of rest and staying hydrated to help your body recover. 2. _Warm liquids_: Drink warm liquids like tea, broth, or soup to help soothe your throat and ease congestion. 3. _Saline nasal sprays_: Use a saline nasal spray to help loosen mucus and reduce congestion. _When to Seek Medical Attention_ 1. _Fever escalation_: If your fever exceeds 102F (39C) or lasts for more than 3 days. 2. _Severe symptoms_: If you experience difficulty breathing, chest pain, or severe headache. 3. _Prolonged recovery_: If your symptoms don't improve within 7-10 days.
