Why Do Some People Get Hotter (feel Heat) Than Others?t Would You Like To Ask?

Ever since I was a kid I’ve had this “problem”. I’ve never had any health problems, have always had a normal blood pressure and body temperature, but for some reason I get hot really easily. I am half-Asian and half-Caucasian, but my skin isn’t dark at all. Even weight gain and weight loss has had no effect on this condition. I would not say I’m an excessive sweater though. My palms never sweat, and I only get “wet” in extreme heat or activity. I just get the feeling of being hot while everyone else is okay. Even now, it’s cold with winter, but if we put the temperature above 70 it’s too hot for me. I’ve been told by multiple people that I actually radiate heat. My thyroid glands and all that kinda stuff is normal. I’ve always been a pretty healthy person, and this certainly isn’t the slightest bit debilitating. I just want to know why I get hot so easily! Any ideas?

It just depends on your internal body settings.Your body defaults to feeling hot. Your blood vessels could be a little closer to the surface of your skin, causing the temperature sensors in your skin to feel the heat of your blood. Or your temp sensors could just be extra sensitive to heat.
I’m the opposite of you…I’m always cold. It can be 75 degrees in a room and I’ll be bundled up in several blankets. It’s definitely annoying, but it’s just something you have to live with. There’s really no way to reset your body’s temperature settings.

Good question i’m the same way…as a matter of fact i couldn’t sleep as a kid bec i was always too hot. In the winter i turn the heat off or i would wake up parched.
I was born in the Caribbean but always get sick because of the Sun…weird i know.
I was born in December – so my analysis is winter babies have extra heat.. =)
