Cold Feet

Though, the idiom 'cold feet' is widely used to express someone's feeling of fear or doubt over something, medically, cold feet are a symptom of illnesses. It could be the body's reaction to cold weather or a low thyroid level. For a diabetic individual with peripheral nerve damage, the feet may feel cold, even though they may be warm to touch. Feet may stay cold if the blood circulation to the feet is poor due to blood vessel diseases as well.
