What Causes Cramps And Coldness In Feet?
Question: My feet are really cold and cramping
Brief Answer:
Taking juicy fruits and keeping the feet warm should help.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone through your query but would need more details in order to guide you further. I would need to know if it is due to low temperatures. If that is the case, application of heat and keeping it warm should help. If not, you might need to visit a doctor to get yourself clinically evaluated. Such a thing could occur due to reduced blood supply to the lower limbs and if that is the case, a Doppler ultrasound of the lower limbs might be needed.
Taking juicy fruits like citrus fruits should help in they contain plenty of potassium which is essential for effective muscle contraction. Try that and if that does not help, visit a doctor.
