I'm used to always having my feet and hands REALLY cold at times, during the winter. Now, I've been having this crap where my right hand would be more cold than usual and my left hand is warm. Heat from a pot of boiling water didn't help. I have gloves on, as of now and it's still cold. I'm inside my house and this never happened to me before. I am going to the doctor soon to check up on this but I wanted to check on here first, before going to my doctor. Anyone know what's wrong with my hand??

It's probably just circulation in your hands. I really don't think it's that serious. Unless there is redding, or bruising. Then it might be early Raynaud's Syndrome.

Is your hand red, or is it bruised/swelled?

No swelling or bruising but they are a bit red.

Are they extremely red or just the usual reddish on your hands?

Usual red. It's really annoying though.

My hands do this all the time. It's pretty normal for teens to have not so good circulation in their hands. I don't know the science behind it but it happens to me all the time and it happened to my dad when he was younger; but he grew out of it.

My mum has Raynaud's and her hands go extremely white when she has an attack of it.

Pouring boiling water over your hands is not a good idea in any circumstance so don't do it again.

ooo. Thanks for the info. My mom was pretty worried about and wanted to go the doctor asap, but Thanks again and to everyone else who posted, and I was just using the heat that the pot released out. I'd never pour it on my hands!
