Unfortunately, I have nothing scientific to add into this answer, just experience. I have found on a number of occasions that having cold wet feet for a prolonged time can bring on a cold the next day. I think it must be that for some reason or other it encourages/brings out a virus that is already in your system. It would be v interesting to know if there is a link between cold/wet feet and an ensuing lowering of the immune system.

If two people are standing together one is wet one is dry which one will feel the cold the most and why?

The dry person will feel the cold more because the wet person standing next to them will try and get warm until the water evaporates onto the next person but by the time it has reached the dry person it would have been cold. so the dry person would feel the cold more! I think, the wet person will feel the cold more because water needs energy to evaporate and this energy is taken form the immediate surroundings ie the wet person, making the wet person feel cold. If you wet your finger and hold it up in the air it will feel cold because the heat to evaporate the water is coming from your finger.

When your feet are wet for too long, it can lead to skin irritation, maceration, and an increased risk of fungal infections like athlete's foot. Prolonged exposure to moisture can also weaken the skin barrier, making it more susceptible to cuts and infections. Additionally, wet conditions can contribute to blisters and discomfort, especially if wearing tight or non-breathable footwear.
