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 curious about something I've noticed on my right wrist. When I press down on the vein, there's this lump or bubble that pops out. It doesn't hurt at all, but I'm really wondering what it could be. Could this be something to worry about? Any idea what might be going on?
Difficult to tell without palpating the lump in a physical consult, but it could be a ganglion cyst. It is harmless, unless compressing any nerves. If you have no symptoms, there should be no cause for concern.
