Why Do I Have Cold Feet?
Cold feet may be your body’s normal response to temperature, but it can sometimes be related to a medical condition that needs treatment. Diseases from diabetes to anemia can affect the temperature of your feet.

Cold Feet Symptoms
Other symptoms that may come along with cold feet and signal a medical condition include:

Weakness and pain in your hands and feet
Sensitivity to cold
Color changes to your skin when you’re cold or stressed
A numb feeling as you get warm or relieve stress.

Cold Feet Causes
Complications of diabetes

If you have diabetes, you're at risk for a variety of problems that can affect your feet:

Peripheral neuropathy

This complication of diabetes damages the nerves in your feet. They may feel cold to you but normal when you touch them. People without diabetes can also get peripheral neuropathy.

Peripheral artery disease

This condition slows or blocks blood flow to your legs and feet. Poor circulation can make your feet cold. (It's possible to get peripheral artery disease without having diabetes. Smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and age all raise your chances of getting the condition.)

Cold Feet Causes
Complications of diabetes

If you have diabetes, you're at risk for a variety of problems that can affect your feet:

Peripheral neuropathy

This complication of diabetes damages the nerves in your feet. They may feel cold to you but normal when you touch them. People without diabetes can also get peripheral neuropathy. Some things that can cause it are injury, autoimmune diseases, alcoholism, lack of vitamins, bone marrow disorders, underactive thyroid, and medications.
Peripheral artery disease

This condition slows or blocks blood flow to your legs and feet. Poor circulation can make your feet cold. (It's possible to get peripheral artery disease without having diabetes. Smoking, high blood pressure, high cholesterol and age all raise your chances of getting the condition.)

Hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid)

Your thyroid, a butterfly-shaped gland in your neck, might be to blame for your cold feet. It makes hormones that affect almost all your organs. The hormones also help turn food and oxygen into energy. If you have an underactive thyroid, your thyroid doesn't release enough hormones. It could make you feel cold all over, including your feet.

Anemia

Your cold feet could be a sign that you're anemic. That means your body doesn't have enough red blood cells, or they aren't healthy enough to do their job of taking oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body.

High cholesterol

If you have high cholesterol you may be at a higher risk of circulation problems, which lead to cold feet. Trouble with circulation (also called arterial disease) is the result of the build-up of cholesterol and inflammation in your blood vessels.

Cold Feet Treatments
Whether or not a medical problem is causing your cold feet, there are some ways to warm up:

Put on socks or slippers
Stretch or move your feet
Stop smoking (nicotine makes it harder for blood to reach your hands and feet)
Lower your cholesterol through diet and medication
Lower your stress
Get more iron, vitamin B12, and folate to improve circulation.
