Cold feet and microcirculation in the foot – it can be improved
Udostępnij
Poles complain about cold feet. The sensation of cold feet can be a symptom of the body cooling down. If cold feet are a persistent problem for us, the causes should be sought with a doctor. The problem of cold feet can result from poor blood circulation. With cold feet, even wearing the right socks, which can increase microcirculation in the foot, can help.
Cold feet – causes
The feeling of cold feet most often bothers us when the outdoor temperature is low. People who work outdoors or sit or stand for long periods of time are the most common complainants of the cold feet problem. Most often, the problem of cold feet results from poor clothing. Popular socks and clothing unfortunately compress blood vessels, which hinders the transport of blood to the feet and toes.
Of course, the causes of cold feet can be very complex. As we get older, blood vessels narrow. People suffering from diabetes are particularly exposed to ailments resulting from impaired blood circulation in the feet.
Cold feet can result from poor blood circulation
The problem of cold feet can result from microcirculation disorders in the foot. During prolonged exposure to cold, unpleasant ailments and an unpleasant feeling of numbness in the toes may occur. Poor microcirculation can lead to ischemia of the toes, which in turn leads to a tingling sensation, sensory disturbances in the toes, and other uncomfortable sensations.
In the case of cold feet, you should see a doctor to check if the cause lies in a cold feet disease – Raynaud's syndrome, or if it results from other microcirculation disorders or other health problems.
What are the ways to deal with cold feet?
In the case of cold feet, first of all, take care of the right clothing. If we go outside, we should take care of the right socks and footwear. Cotton socks should be avoided, as they can lead to cooling of the foot and the body. Why? This is due to the fact that every foot sweats, and cotton absorbs moisture and cools the foot down. Sweating of the feet results from our natural physiology; every foot sweats every day. Few people know, but we lose about 250 milliliters of water through our feet every day. Therefore, if we put on cotton socks in a cold environment, we will lead to cooling of the feet and return very cold. The same applies to bamboo socks.
Best for the feet are socks made of synthetic fibers that dry quickly, insulate, and thermoregulate the temperature of the feet.
