While putting on socks or a blanket usually solves the problem, constant cold feet may be a warning from your body.

Several conditions can cause cold feet, including poor circulation, anemia, diabetes, hypothyroidism, Raynaud’s phenomenon, and multiple sclerosis. Poor circulation, for instance, reduces blood flow to the feet, while anemia causes oxygen deficiencies. Diabetes may lead to nerve damage, and hypothyroidism slows metabolism. Raynaud’s and multiple sclerosis affect blood flow and nerve function, causing abnormal cold sensations.

If cold feet persist with other symptoms, consult a doctor. Identifying the underlying cause is essential for your well-being.
