Why Does My Stomach Feel Cold and How Can I Relieve It?

Fear of coldness in the abdomen may be caused by cold weather, improper diet, and inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. It can be alleviated through methods such as soaking feet in hot water for more than half an hour every day, drinking brown sugar ginger water, and applying hot compresses with a hot water bottle. Low immunity, lack of subcutaneous fat, and acute enteritis can also lead to fear of coldness in the abdomen. It is recommended to eat warm foods regularly, strengthen exercise, and improve immunity.
