Circulation cold legs and feet

[Guest guest]

:

My legs and feet are very cold about 70% of the time it seems. In my case anyway

(can't speak for others), it seems my circulation is

generally fine (they do a test with pushing down toenails and pressing on skin

to check) but the problem is that many of the muscles in my feet and lower legs

are atrophied.. Someone told me that the muscles are needed to help with the

circulation and hold in warmth.

I do find that exercise helps temporarily. For instance, if I go to the gym in

the early evening, my feet and legs are not as icy cold the rest of the night.

However, the next day, the cold tends to return.

Over the past six months, I have moved to a house with an above

ground pool that is good for water exercise. I do find that my feet don't feel

quite as cold as often as in the past. This may also be due to the summer

though.

Hope this helps. Peace, :-)
