Whenever we go to bed during the winter season, we cover our entire body from mouth to feet with a quilt or blanket. Also, close the room completely and turn on the heater, so that any kind of cold does not reach you. But if your feet remain cold even after being covered in a quilt and the heater running, then it is a matter of concern.

If you are wearing warm socks on your feet and still your feet are cold, then it can be a sign of many diseases, ignoring which can prove dangerous. Through this article we will tell you what problems you may have to face.

weak blood circulation

If your feet remain cold even after wearing a quilt or warm socks in winter, then the reason could be blood circulation. When blood does not reach the veins of the legs properly, heat is not generated in that area. For this reason the feet remain cool. If the blood circulation in the legs is not good, then there may be complaints like numbness, pain and heaviness, which are dangerous for the body.

increase in bad cholesterol

Due to increase in the amount of bad cholesterol (LDL) in the blood, feet may remain cold despite protection from cold. This happens because cholesterol starts accumulating in the veins, due to which blood circulation slows down. The most dangerous thing is that information about this is not available quickly. When the veins become excessively blocked, symptoms of the disease appear. If bad cholesterol has increased in the body, then the risk of heart related diseases also increases.

effect of diabetes

The veins in the legs of patients suffering from diabetes become weak. Due to this the blood vessels become hard and narrow. These veins shrink further in cold weather. When adequate blood circulation does not reach the feet, the problem of cold feet begins.

Hemoglobin deficiency and anemia

If the amount of hemoglobin in the blood decreases, the risk of diseases like anemia increases. This can be dangerous for health. When there is lack of blood in the body, the body is not able to produce adequate amount of heat. Due to anemia, the body remains cold and problems like weakness, numbness in hands and legs can also occur.
