Why Do Some People Feel “Particularly Sensitive to the Weather” After Treatment?
Many people find that after treatment ends, they become more aware of weather changes than before.
A slight drop in temperature makes their hands and feet feel cold, while hot and humid weather leaves them feeling more tired or uncomfortable.
This increased sensitivity to environmental changes is actually quite common during the recovery phase and is usually related to the adjustment processes of the circulatory system, autonomic nervous system, and overall energy recovery.
The circulatory system is still adjusting
During treatment, blood circulation and microcirculation may be affected, and it takes time for them to recover.
When peripheral circulation has not fully returned to normal, the body becomes more sensitive to external temperature changes.
Some people notice:
- Hands and feet get cold easily
- Feeling particularly uncomfortable after spending time in air-conditioned rooms
- Body sensations become more pronounced during weather changes
These phenomena usually improve gradually as circulation recovers.
The adaptation process of the autonomic nervous system
The autonomic nervous system regulates body temperature, heart rate, and blood vessel constriction.
After the body has gone through a period of significant stress, the balance of the autonomic nervous system sometimes needs time to be re-established.
As a result, some people may experience:
- Sudden feelings of hot and cold
- Quicker reactions to temperature changes
- Easily feeling overheated or chilly
This adjustment process is usually temporary.
The influence of physical energy and recovery
When the body’s energy is still in the recovery stage, its ability to maintain body temperature may be slightly weaker than before.
This makes people more susceptible to external temperature influences, especially noticeable during fatigue or insufficient sleep.
Many people observe:
- On days with lower energy, they feel particularly sensitive to cold or heat
- When well-rested, sensitivity to weather decreases
This is a common interconnected phenomenon.
Emotions and stress may also affect sensations
Stress and emotions can influence the stability of the autonomic nervous system, which in turn affects temperature regulation and environmental perception.
When the body and mind are still adapting to a new life rhythm, these changes can sometimes be more pronounced.
In most cases, it gradually improves
Increased sensitivity to weather is usually not a permanent change.
As energy levels, circulation, and daily routines gradually stabilize, the body’s ability to adapt to the environment often recovers slowly.
Many survivors, looking back after a few months, realize that their sensitivity to temperature changes has decreased, and these improvements often occur step by step in daily life.
Giving the body enough time to allow the circulatory and regulatory systems to recover slowly is usually the most important thing during this stage.
