Why is my body warm but my feet are cold?

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'm really worried because I've had a high fever with shivering for two days now. The fever keeps coming and going, but my feet are extremely cold. I've taken dolo 650 and norflox, but now I'm feeling nauseous since this morning. All I've eaten is some bread and milk. On top of that, I'm dealing with a cold and really bad body pain. What should I do?

You may be experiencing a viral infection. To help with your symptoms, I recommend taking Tab. Paracetamol 500mg for fever and body pain. You can take one tablet every 6 hours as needed. Additionally, for nausea, you can take Tab. Ondansetron 4mg. It can be taken twice a day to help with nausea. Make sure to stay hydrated and get plenty of rest. If your symptoms persist or worsen, please seek medical attention.

So, I got scratched by a stray cat but I'm pretty sure it hasn't been vaccinated. I'm not really certain if it used its teeth on my skin or just scratched with its nails, or maybe both? But there's nothing to see reallyno marks, no wounds, no bleeding, and it doesn't hurt or burn at all. Do you think I should get a tetanus shot? Or is it okay to wait a month or two before doing that? Also, is an antirabies injection really necessary since there's no bleeding or visible wound? The last time I got a tetanus shot was back in May 2016, and I did clean the area right away with Dettol. What do you suggest?

burning sensation on the tongue, accompanied by bleeding and redness, can be concerning. Possible causes include: - Tongue injury or trauma - Oral thrush (fungal infection) - Geographic tongue (benign condition) - Vitamin deficiencies (e.g., B12, iron) Consult a dentist or an ear, nose, and throat (ENT) specialist for a thorough evaluation guidance.

I'm feeling really worried because I've had a fever for the last four days. I got some tests done and my urine epithelial cells count came back at 45, but everything else in the urine test, including pus cells, is within the normal range. Should I be concerned about the high epithelial cells, or could it just be related to the fever? Would love to get your advice on this.

There are many causes of fever, just with this amount history it's difficult to diagnose.
