I have been struggling with a persistent issue for quite some time now....
It really comes down to my sensitivity to the cold... specifically when I'm trying to sleep. If I happen to uncover myself even slightly, I am guaranteed to wake up with a runny nose. During the summer, I find myself sleeping under a heavy winter duvet, wearing pajamas along with two layers of shirts. Even if a sleeve rolls up just three centimeters, I honestly feel the chill immediately.
The exact same thing happened this morning; I was tucked under a blanket and a thick winter comforter, wearing three shirts plus an undershirt. Of course, I ended up catching a chill! I can't help but wonder what the underlying issue might be....
And heaven forbid I try to fall asleep in just a T-shirt or nothing at all during the summer months—I'm terrified I wouldn't even make it through the night without waking up sick...👎

a sensitive muscle😁 😘
It’s quite an unusual sensation, isn't it? I have a nagging feeling that this might be something more prevalent among the elderly. It seems to me like it could be tied to some sort of circulatory issue...

It’s probably a combination of things. Here are a few possibilities (not saying it’s definitely all of these, but just thinking out loud):

Poor circulation, especially if your hands and feet are always freezing.
A weak immune system, if you're catching colds that easily.
Or maybe you just plain can't handle the cold.

If it's the first one, it's not exactly a massive issue to fix—just get moving more.

If it's the second, you need to overhaul a few things. Diet is key. It needs to be varied. You don't need those massive multivitamins people swear by, and honestly, eating ten million tons of spinach won't help either. Just eat a diverse range of foods and try to get your vitamins from actual fruit rather than pills whenever possible.

As for the third option, I have no clue how to help since I don't really have that problem personally (I'm fine even in short sleeves when it's 32 degrees in Washington, D.C. 😬 ).

If you want to warm up fast, I recommend a glass of pure lemon juice. And I mean pure—don't even think about lemonade. It gets the blood flowing immediately. I say a glass because I know most people can't actually handle that much acid, but honestly, I'd recommend squeezing about four pounds of lemons like I'm about to do right now.😬

Two pounds of lemons, and I'm freezing my tail off here.
