One of the common causes of increased chilliness of the limbs is iron deficiency in the body. Neurologist Aishat Yunusova told Gazeta.Ru about this.
The problem can persist at almost any time of the year, she said, and if the limbs remain cold when warm, and when the temperature drops, they become stiff and not warm at all, this may indicate a serious or dangerous violation. For example, iron deficiency anemia, which, in turn, may be associated with pathologies of other organs.
“One of the common causes of constantly freezing hands and feet is iron deficiency, which results in hypoxia,” Yunusova explained. “Iron is a key component of hemoglobin, a special protein that binds oxygen to blood cells.”
Another cause of excessive chilliness and increased sensitivity to cold may be endocrine disorders. Often, “frostiness” indicates problems with the thyroid gland. In addition to cold extremities, they can also be indicated by swelling of the face, swollen eyelids, too much dry skin, the doctor noted.
Also, another dangerous cause of constant freezing is heart failure. According to Yunusova, this pathology is also given out by pallor of the skin and a tendency to edema.
