Have Cold Palms Of Hands, Sweating, Chills Moving Up Arm. Causes For Symptoms?

My sons hands are cold all the time. Sometimes they Are clammy also. Yesterday during a tough basketball practice with tons of running, he had to sit with his jacket on because the cold hand thing went up into his forearms. He is 15 and has been complaining about the cold hands all year but the arm part is new. What is it?

Hi !

Thank you for your query.

I think you need evaluation for thyroid function . Plus does he ever get change of colour of digits while exposure to cold , in that case raynauds disease needs to be ruled out .

I think you should see a physician for this problem and get him evaluated.
