Get a Doctor to check it out.
It could be a matter of simply having bad circulation...but it could also be a precursor to diabetes. Have your friend go to doctor asap.
Otherwise, more exercise.
He does have poor circulation in his feet. He can take blood thinners to try and improve it... aspirin a day for example.
He needs to exercise them more too. Foot massages are also a good therapy for improving the bloodflow as well as a warm foot soaking.
Good thick cotton socks will keep them warm as well.
If all else fails he needs to get to a doctor for examination. Symptoms like this could also be indicative of a beginning diabetic condition.
like i care
a good massage will help
Your friend should visit a chiropractor. Regular chiropractic adjustments improve circulation and unblock nerves. This will help with cold feet.
knit him some socks
does he live in Iceland ?
It could be due to bad circulation or diabetes.
You might look into cold laser at a chiropractor's office too.
from the web site.
Keep the Blood Flowing to Your Feet
Put your feet up when you are sitting. Wiggle your toes for 5 minutes, 2 or 3 times a day. Move your ankles up and down and in and out to improve blood flow in your feet and legs.
DO NOT cross your legs for long periods of time.
DO NOT wear tight socks, elastic, or rubber bands, or garters around your legs.
DO NOT wear restrictive footwear or foot products. Foot products that can cut off circulation to the feet, such as products with elastic, should not be worn by diabetics.
DO NOT smoke. Smoking reduces blood flow to your feet. If you have high blood pressure or high cholesterol, work with your health care team to lower it.
well, I hope she's a girl otherwise this sounds really gay!
Who cares? as long as your partner is good in bed?
It prob is down to circulation, i have the same prob. if you have a circulation you can use a foot spa. Thats what i use and it does wonders.
This is a condition called Raynaud's disease (I have it too). It is most common in people of Scandinavian descent, but it can occur in anyone. The is no cure. It is caused by poor circulation but is worsened by stress. Therefore, it is part physiological and part psychological. Keeping your hands and feet covered in the winter is very important. Hot foot soaks and massages also help. This condition can cause your feet to feel like they "lock up" sometimes, which can be very painful. But be careful, this condition can also be indicative of other conditions, such as lupus and diabetes. Hope that helps :)
Could it be Raynauds syndrome? (Not sure if I've spelt the name correctly though)
Get your Doctor to check - does this happen in his hands too?
go to a GP might have diabetes
common side affect
It sounds like it is due to bad circulation, this website might help: www.alternative-healthzine.com... nettle tea is also said to improve circulation, otherwise get them to seek to medical advice.
The circulation of blood depend upon the activity of the heart, which, essentially, is a pump. If a part of the body is short of blood, it will become cold. The feet are pretty far away from the heart - they are, in medical terms, bodily extremities, and are likely to become cold if their is any impairment to the circulation of the blood.
Obesity, age and blood pressure are factors that can militate towards cold feet. On the other hand, a perfectly healthy circulation can still bias towards the frozen foot. Sportsmen, especially footballers and cricketers, who are at the peak of fitness, will be incapacitated for considerable lengths of time by shin injuries, simply because of the heart, the distance therefrom, and also because the venous (number of blood-veins) capacity and provision at these extremities is naturally minimal, thus reflecting the natural paucity of blood circulating in these bodily areas.
I have been an amateur cricketer for nearly forty years, and the bruises I received from the 2005 season arond my shins are still in evidence, whereas the torso bruises I have acquired during the 2006 season have healed. Its all to do with the supply of blood.
There are no tips. See a doctor pronto. I've got a bit of knowledge, but you cannot beat a doctor of medicine.
i thought this was called reynaulds disease. look on interent not sure.
