Cold Feet and Hands is a very common condition that can affect people of all ages. In the majority of cases, the condition is painful, inconvenient but does not result from a serious condition such as blood vessels being blocked.
Most people who suffer from Cold Feet and Hands do so due to the body’s response to cold temperatures. The body will reduce the blood flow to these extremities, which leave the feet and hands cold (the body is trying to protect itself and keeping the blood in the main arteries of the body. This commonly happens during winter when the temperature drops, and people may be sitting for long periods in cold and draughty houses.
Poor circulation is a very common condition, and predominantly targets middle-aged to elderly people; if these individuals smoke, the chance of poor circulation dramatically increases.
In certain cases of chronic Cold Feet and Hands, the condition may be due to other serious, underlying conditions, such as;
- Numbness and/or insensitivity to temperature and/or pain
- Burning, tingling and skin sensitivity
- Cramps and sharp pain
- Extremely COLD feet or possibly hot feet in certain circumstances
- Impaired circulation and inactivity.
Research has shown that the above symptoms are worse at night.
Make COLD FEET/HANDS (poor circulation) a thing of the past!
Chilblains are caused by the skin's abnormal reaction to cold and is another term for "cold feet." Your circulation is a determining factor. Those with poor circulation are more susceptible. Symptoms include burning and itching, swelling or redness, breaks in the skin, and ulcers. One of the major problems with poor circulation to the feet is that problems arise such as infections, cuts, ulcers, etc. These symptoms do not heal properly due to vital elements, such as oxygen, being restricted due to poor circulation. The Circulation Booster® may help to improve your body’s blood circulation and alleviate cold feet and hands which are symptoms associated with poor circulation (try our gloves designed specifically for cold hands).
Complications of Cold Feet & Hands
Abscess/Celulitis: Pockets of infection just beneath the skin.
Cracked/Broken Skin: This may lead to severe infection when inadequate blood flow is present.
Loss of sleep: Sleep patterns are disturbed as the symptoms often get worse at night.
Loss of Sensation: Loss of sharp/soft touch to the feet and hands.
