Ive been noticing that throughout the day, my palms and feet feel really hot, and other people have even remarked on how warm they get when they touch them. Could you let me know what might be causing this and if theres any treatment I should consider?

You may have an highly active metabolism which can result in feeling hot internally. You should however opt to get a panel of tests done in order to rule out specific illnesses. Recommended tests include CBC, HbA1C, TFT, RFT and LFT. If these reports are normal, there should be no cause for concern.

I'm really worried about my mom's health since she hasn't been feeling too well lately. Could you suggest a comprehensive list of tests for a full body checkup to ensure everything's okay with her health?

The probable cause of your mother's sudden high blood pressure (BP) spike could be: 1. Medication non-adherence or resistance 2. Underlying kidney disease or artery stiffness 3. Hormonal imbalances (e.g., thyroid disorders) 4. Sleep apnea or poor sleep quality 5. Increased sodium intake or fluid retention 6. Stress or anxiety 7. Secondary hypertension due to another medical condition

I've had this lymph node that got swollen after a fever a couple of years ago, and I used to press it a lot back then. I just recently got tested for HIV and VDRL, both came back negative, and I feel good overall, like my weight's normal and all. Do you think the swelling could be from pressing it too much back then, or could there be something else going on that's more serious?

That could be reactive lymphnode for your infection,visit physician for evaluation and appropriate management
