Reply to comment by SirDuke6 in ELI5: Why does putting one foot out from under the blankets bring so much relief of heat while laying in bed? by SirDuke6
Glabrous skin is located in 3 parts of your body, the sole of the foot, palms of your hands and forehead.
It lacks the hair and pigmentation and has extra pores for heat transfer.
The skin on the rest of your body is thick and well insulated and designed to keep heat in and everything else out.
