thermoreceptors
There are only heat receptors. "Cold" is a low level of heat.
General sensory receptors such as light touch and temperature receptors are located over the entire surface of the body. There are no specific areas where these receptors are located.
Simvastatin is a used to help to lower cholesterol levels. It does this in two ways:1. by decreasing the amount of cholesterol being produced by the liver1. by decreasing the amount of receptors that "take away" LDLs/"Bad cholesterol"
Your brain helps your body to maintain a constant temperature by detecting temperature receptors that are found in the skin. Temperature is controlled by the hypothalamus.
The body contains temperature receptors which monitor external temperature in order to regulate body temperature. These special temperature receptors are located in the skin.
Adaption
Sensory receptors for cold are located in the dermis, the are formally called free nerve endings.

It all depends on the sensory receptors affected by continuous stimulus applied. It can cause complete damage to the receptors and or prevent them from receiving the correct signals.
