Cold hands and feet?

[danielle19]

Does anyone know what can cause this?

 

[Carley]

[danielle19]

Okay thanks hun x

 

[Carley]

Raynaud's Phenomenon; Raynaud's Phenomenon (or Raynaud's Disease) is a condition causing some areas of the body, such as the fingers, toes, tip of the nose and ears, to feel numb and cool in response to cold temperatures or stress.

My hands and feet are always cold, icy cold.

[Carley]

Hope that helps hunny.

 

[Carley]

No it's not only bad circulation

My doctor says i have raynaud's disease, my hands and feet are permanently cold, my toes will even go blue.
Its due to the blood vessels in your hands and feet dilating too much, Doctors diagnose it by a description of the colour changes in your hands (with Raynaulds the colours are white, red and blue but not in that order)

Thanks Carley
I was just getting worried as they are cold all the time and was starting to get worried about it
Is there anything that you can do for it?
Thanks Danielle xx

Not much you can really do for it except keep warm, wear gloves and extra socks.

My fingers and feet always look dead. Purple, red, white...yukky. All you can do is keep them warm, doesn't always help but it can minimize how cold they get. The biggest problem with raynaud is gang green from lack of blood flow.

Im permanently in doubled up socks lol

 

[Carley]

I feel your pain. I hate when they get that cold It hurts

 

[Arcanegirl]

Me too, working in fridges at work doesnt help

 

[Carley]

You must be crazy hunny LOL

 

[Arcanegirl]

Must be, i have fun chasing everyone else with the cold hands on their necks though

my hands/feet are allllways freezing, have been like this since i could remember...i figured it was because they are bony lol and don't have enough meat on them to keep warm never thought it could actually be a condition. the worst is at night in bed my feet are so cold it's painful and i can't sleep, and i have to lay on my hands to keep warm. luckily DH is a burning furnace, he is always warming them up!

hope you feel better, and bundle up in some socks! i always wear a pair of socks or slippers in the house to keep warm!
