Is it bad to place a heater by your feet?

Question

My office is extremely cold and we can't change the room temperature. I have a small heater that I put under my desk next to my feet. I was wondering if this was going to end up hurting me in the long run.

Answer 1

no I do it all the time in the winter.  Just don't get it to close.  You might want to put moisturizer on you feet and legs afterwords or in the morning.

Answer 2

I hope not, because i use one too.

it might dry out your skin a little but you should

be fine.  Just remember to turn it off before you leave

and you might check to make sure your work doesn't have

a policy against them.  

Mine does, but I

have it anyway.

:P

Answer 3

i don't know if it's bad but i do know that body heat escapes through the feat whis why when your feet are cold a person is fully cold and when warm a person is fully warm
