My hands and feet are cold a lot, I may have Raynaud’s, I think my mom and grandma have it. Say I'm in a room where another person is perfectly comfortable, and I'm comfortable, except that my feet are cold and numb feeling (feels like my bones have turned to ice). They're a little cool to the touch, but not that cold. Is it alright to just ignore them, or do I need to get them warmed up? Sure, it's annoying, but I've gotten used to it, I'm 22 and I've been like this for years and years. I know that if they got really cold, like if I was outside in the cold, I could possibly get frostbite if I ignored them, but I wouldn't do that. I guess my question is this: is it harmful to ignore the feeling that my feet are cold, if they're not actually too cold?
I'm most interested in answers from people with medical backgrounds or with experience with this. Thank you!
