What to do if your arms are cold

Each physiological part of the human body has its normal temperature value range. Once the temperature value is fixed outside the range, it means that the physiological function of the human body is abnormal. If your arms feel cold, then there is something wrong with the related physiological functions. The human body's resistance to external evil also has a normal range. If you feel hot when you shouldn't, or feel cold when you shouldn't, then there must be something wrong. If your arms are cold and you’re sensitive to the cold, that’s definitely not right, so what should you do?

There are many reasons for being afraid of cold: people with iron deficiency have less hemoglobin, which affects the blood's oxygen-carrying capacity, leading to impaired tissue energy metabolism, and people will feel abnormally cold due to insufficient heat generation.

People with low blood pressure have insufficient peripheral blood circulation, and human tissues also do not get enough oxygen and energy, which will also cause chills. In addition, when the body's thyroid hormone secretion is insufficient, the blood circulation in the skin and other parts slows down, and insufficient heat production will make the reaction to cold more intense. During menopause, the body's estrogen level is low, which affects the stability of nerves and blood vessels, making it easy to have chills in the waist, abdomen, hands, feet and whole body.

1. Eat more foods that replenish qi and nourish blood. For example, deer antler, cinnamon, Korean ginseng, placenta, aconite, ginseng, Cistanche, Psoralea corylifolia, Cuscuta australis, Rehmannia glutinosa, angelica, donkey-hide gelatin, wolfberry, tortoise glue, etc. are all commonly used medicinal materials. When decocting, they can be stewed with chicken, duck, mutton, eel, and wood louse for both nourishing and delicious results.

2. Daily massage can relieve the symptoms of cold hands and feet and chills throughout the body.

3. Do more exercise. You might as well get up early in the morning and do some exercise. Walking is the best choice! Walk forward with big strides at a speed faster than walking but slower than running, and swing your hands at the same time. Walking for 30 minutes will promote the circulation of qi and blood, and your whole body will feel warm. Because the blood circulation and metabolism are accelerated early in the morning, you will be full of energy all day and will not easily feel cold! You can also try simple stair climbing and jumping on the spot for 20 minutes until you sweat slightly, which will help enhance your body's ability to regulate temperature. After working for 40 minutes, it is best to stand up and walk or step on the floor. Moving your fingers and toes from time to time while working can help blood circulation.
