There are several potential causes for cold extremities, including:
Poor Circulation: Reduced blood flow to the extremities can cause them to feel cold. Hypothyroidism: An underactive thyroid can slow down metabolism, affecting circulation. Raynaud's Disease: This condition causes blood vessels to narrow in response to cold or stress. Anemia: Low levels of hemoglobin can reduce oxygen delivery to the extremities. Diabetes: Peripheral neuropathy in diabetes patients can lead to cold sensations in the extremities.
