I've been experiencing something a bit unusual. Occasionally, when I touch my skin, it feels hot to me, but when I ask others to feel it, they say my skin's actually cold. At the same time, even though my body feels warm on the inside, I start feeling really cold when the fan is on a higher speed. I don't have any other symptoms and it doesnt seem like a fever because I feel normal otherwise. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

You may be experiencing a sensation of altered temperature perception, where you feel hot but others perceive your skin as cold. This phenomenon could be due to various reasons such as changes in blood circulation, nerve function, or even psychological factors. One possible explanation could be related to a condition called peripheral neuropathy, which can affect how your body senses temperature. I recommend you to take Acetaminophen 500mg for relief, and if the symptoms persist or worsen, it would be best to consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation and management.

Lately, I've been noticing a pin-pricking sensation on the upper part of my right-hand ring finger, and it tends to happen more frequently in the evenings. It's getting a bit concerning, and I'm wondering what might be causing it. Should I be worried or is there something I should be doing to alleviate it?

It sounds like you may be experiencing a sensation of tingling or pins and needles in your ring finger. This can be caused by pressure on nerves, poor circulation, or even repetitive use of the hand. If the sensation persists or worsens, it's a good idea to consult a healthcare provider to rule out conditions like nerve compression or carpal tunnel syndrome.
