Do you notice that there are some people whose nose is always cold? Even if it is warm outside, your nose is always icy. Why does this happen?
Chances are it is nothing to worry about, but there are a few cases where a cold nose may require you to turn your eyes away from your body.
1. You just got it from the cold
On cold days it takes longer for blood to circulate normally to our hands, feet or nose. Body temperature changes and blood circulation to cope with the cold focuses on internal organs such as the heart, liver, kidneys, brain, etc. At the same time, the extremities are colder.
2. You may have been overworked or stressed
Numerous studies have concluded that there is a link between body temperature and the stress that permeates our brain. At the end of the experiment it was found that people more focused on the tasks given to them, had colder noses than others. It can happen that when you are very focused while working, you feel a colder nose than usual, so it is good to take a short break.
3. Hormonal disorder
If you are not producing enough thyroid hormones, the body's metabolism starts and slows down. By having a slower metabolism, the body stores heat and energy and less heat goes to the extremities, hence as a result we have a cold nose.
4. Other chronic diseases
If you suffer from high blood sugar or heart problems it is likely that your nose is always cold. Of course, a cold nose is just one of the symptoms, so before you jump to conclusions, if you suspect you are suffering from diabetes or blood pressure problems, consult your doctor.
How to get rid of a cold nose?
If you know it comes to you simply as a result of the cold, keep some warm compresses, but be careful not to burn yourself. Drink tea to warm up and put on a scarf.
If the cold nose persists for long periods of time (even in summer), causes you pain, bothers you or is accompanied by other symptoms, talk to a doctor to get the treatment you need.
