The primary site of heat loss from the body is the skin. Its not necessarily the head or feet. It is just the skin.
"The skin is the primary site of heat loss. the circulating blood brings heat to the skin's surface, where small connections between the arterioles and the venules lie directly below the skin surface. Other heat losses occur through evaporation of sweat, through warming and humidifying of inspired air and through the elimination of urine and feces." (Fundamentals of Nursing 7th edition, Taylor, Chapter 24, page 517, 2011)

What are the five cardinal signs of inflammation and how do they manifest in the body?
The five cardinal signs of inflammation are redness, swelling, heat, pain, and loss of function. Redness occurs due to increased blood flow to the affected area, causing it to appear red. Swelling is caused by the accumulation of fluid and white blood cells at the site of inflammation. Heat is a result of increased blood flow and metabolic activity in the area. Pain is caused by the release of chemicals that stimulate nerve endings. Loss of function can occur due to the swelling and pain limiting movement in the affected area.
