Touched on this before but for last 3 or 4 weeks my hands and feet have been freezing. This came on suddenly I have always had cold feet but not to this extent. Anyone else had this and did it go away?

There are conditions that cause cold hands and feet and they are easily treatable. If you can ring your GP.

I've had cold hands and feet for as long as I can remember. My MIL used to say I should be excellent at making pastry due to my cold hands, but I'm epically bad at it. I even manage to bugger up shop bought pastry! :blush:

So it's kind of the norm for me..

Me too. I have Raynaud's though which is a minor issue really.

So did my mother. Her fingers turned a funny colour? I don't have that - I'm just naturally nesh.

Raynauds was my first thought too. Haven't got it but have seen plenty of people at work with it.

Move around! Make sure you’re wear socks or slippers! Eat something…


This is coming from another chilly person!!

I'd try wearing socks before ringing the doctor?

It's a real problem with ingrowing toenail surgery, isn't it?! I had my surgery cancelled twice because my feet were too cold. In the end I had to resort to hours of hot water bottle therapy beforehand..and this was June!

Thanks .Was wearing 2 pairs of socks yesterday and slippers and feet still felt absolutely freezing , however, today definitely did not feel as cold so maybe tomorrow will be better...
