Loss of Feeling... (11)
immanuelleThe Hague, South Holland Netherlands63 Threads 1,962 PostsSomething a little worrying happened today. I have had frostbite in the past in most of my fingers due to stupidity mainly and I know I have some nerve damage to my fingers. But lately, when it is a little cold out, nothing extreme, I lose all feeling in one of my fingers. The blood drains out of the finger, leaving it pale and colourless and I have to soak it in hot water to regain feeling. It lasted about 45 minutes today before I regained feeling and it really frightened me. I will address this to a doctor next week but was wondering if this has happened to anyone else.

I´m not medically experienced, but I believe that the after effects of frostbite can be worrying. Happily in most cases, not serious and can heal in time.
I teach qualified medical students of English in the main and I remember talking about this some time ago.
See your doctor to set your mind at rest, but if you have any other unamswered questions or questions let me know and I´ll ask my students.

Thanks Jan,
Was convinced it was going to fall off today. I was out and about and bought a cup of McDonald's coffee and stuck my finger in there. Had a few weird looks from people.

Usually it is a poor circulation on that specific segment,foot or hand.
You have to have it checked by a doctor , there are treatments that are extremely efficient and will prevent that excruciating pain every time it gets in contact with cold.
It will get better in no time!

my hands and feet are this way.. been that way for about five years..... I'd frame houses in the winter and the hammer would go flying out of my hand and I would feel it leaving it....
Now I won't do too much work outside in the winter..------ This thread is Archived ------
