He has "burning feet". It's literally a syndrome, but doctors sometimes give you a blank stare.
It's very commonCommon cold in people who have had an episode of starvation - so it's commonCommon cold among anorexics, and former Prisoners of War, but it also seems commonCommon cold among kids who have had a severe illness or anemia.
My oldest son had it for about 5 years, always at nighttime. Although his feet didn't feel hot to the touch, he wrapped them in ice. He would imagine how good it would feel to walk in the snow.
