What's wrong with cold hands and feet?

Cold can make people's whole body or local blood circulation poor, or blood circulation in limbs is blocked, which will lead to cold hands and feet. Often long-term cold hands and feet can be called chills. Traditional Chinese medicine theory holds that this is a reaction of qi deficiency, qi stagnation and yang deficiency. Women are more likely to have cold hands and feet during special physiological periods such as menstruation, pregnancy and childbirth because of their weak body. If not prevented in time, it will lead to poor spirit, chills and severe varicose veins of lower limbs.

cause

1, a girl who is too thin.

Girls with thin constitution and deficiency-cold constitution are most likely to have cold hands and feet, because the peripheral blood circulation of such people is poor, which is easy to disorder the thermoregulation mechanism. Cold hands and feet are caused by poor regulation of autonomic nerve function and thinning of blood vessels. Moreover, toes, knees, shoulders and fingers belong to joint areas with more exercise, because there are relatively few fat and blood vessels, and heat is easily lost.

2. Hypoglycemia or hypotension.

Food is an important source of body heat. Too much weight loss, too hungry, and too low blood sugar will make your hands and feet cold. When blood pressure is low, blood circulation will be poor. When you are tired and weak, your blood pressure will drop easily and your hands and feet will be cold.

3. When the pressure is too high

Your hands and feet will be cold and trembling because of stressful work pressure or time pressure. As long as you get through this tense period, you will gradually return to warmth.

4. The clothes are not warm enough

If your hands and feet are cold, there is something wrong with the average temperature adjustment. If you have put on more clothes, but your hands and feet haven't recovered to the degree of warmth, you should pay attention, because many people's body surface temperature-sensitive nerve receptors react too slowly to feel cold.

5, the weather is cold or stay in an air-conditioned room for a long time.

Will reduce blood flow, slow down blood flow, cold hands and feet.

6. Autonomic nerve dysfunction

Vegetative nerve dysfunction caused by kidney deficiency, cold hands and feet.

7. Hypothyroidism

Due to the decrease of basal metabolic rate, the patient's body heat production is obviously reduced, and even if he wears more clothes in cold winter, his hands and feet are always cold.
