Patient's question:
Doctor, I am 25 years old this year, and I am very afraid of cold. Recently, it has started to get colder again. I noticed that my fingers, specifically the middle fingers, turn white and numb in the cold. What is this symptom? I have always been fine before, but this is the first time I've noticed it. I am seeking clarification from you, thank you.Doctor's answer:
Hello, it may be due to poor peripheral circulation causing cold, pale, and numb fingers. I suggest you pay attention to cold prevention during winter, avoid exposure to cold stimuli, and minimize contact with cold water. When washing your face, use lukewarm water. At night, you can rub your hands back and forth and massage each other. Regularly exercise and stay active to boost your immune system. I hope my explanation helps you.
