Hello

I have studied your case,

Cold sensation can be due to vascular occlusion.
Colour Doppler may help in diagnosis and 3 D CT angiography will give exact position of circulation to lower limb.

There are many medications to improve blood circulation like pentoxyphylline; you can start them consulting your doctor.

Hope this answers your query. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries.

Wishing you good health.

Take care.
