Can Anxiety Cause Cold Sensation In Head

Hi i am feeling a cold sensation on the top of my head in the center. When i rub or pull my hair a little it goes away but comes back after a couple seconds. I am going through anxiety right now. I have medication but i try avoiding it as much as possible since i am very against medecine. I ve gotten a cat scan and blood work and got back good results (got then about last month). I do also have vertigo (which is believed to come with the anxiety. The vertigo goes away for a couple days. So my question is, does the coldness happen because of the anciety? I don t feel numbness anywhere at all. Let me know if you have a question on any other symptoms. Thank you for your time in reading this.
