So if it's not circulation problems, what is it?

Question

For nearly four or five days now my ankles, feet, and hands have been ice cold to the point where I have to wear three pairs of socks and keep a hot washcloth around my hands. Sometimes it's not bad at all.

Earlier today I finally got worried enough to tell my mom, and since I have aortic stenosis in the first place she called my cardiologist who can't see me until monday. I went to my primary care doctor, they told me my circulation, blood pressure, blood oxygen level; all of it's perfect.

So what could be causing this? I'm usually always warm.

Answer 1

your doctor is right, its a symptom of blood circulation disorder which derived from your aortic stenosis.

your blood flows from heart were have an oxygen shortage and this reveal on your extremities (fingers of hands and feet) is 'coolnessses'.



to treat this kind of symptoms, you would be better take an exercise or two according to your doctor's suggestion of which exercise/s will be adequately match for your condition and... have another nice warmness
