What Causes Difference In The Temperatures Of Body Parts?
I am a 20 year old girl. I have been experiencing difference in the temperatures of body parts. Usually, my feet have different temperatures; right foot colder than the left. This has also started happening with my hands now. Is it something to worry about?

Hi,
welcome to health care magic,
It is quite normal to have a different temperatures of our body part like rectal temperature will be slightly more than axillary and which will be more than oral temperature.
Now,if the difference is not significant then there is no need to worry and be rested but in case if problem is having much difference then a doctor must be consult for proper diagnosis and treatment.
