I have noticed since December that when I sleep and my hands and feet are covered by a blanket, they get extremely hot. So hot that it wakes me out of my sleep. I have to intentionally make sure that my hands and feet aren’t covered throughout the night because the sensation is unbearable. I have to get up in the middle of the night just to run them under cold water.

It might help to bring it up with your doctor just to rule out nerve-related causes.
Also, communities like Antardhwani can be helpful to see how others are managing similar symptoms.
