Understanding Poor Circulation

Any blockage to your extensive circulatory system, which supplies your body with blood, oxygen, and nutrients, results in poor circulation. Your heart, veins, arteries, capillaries, and other blood vessels can efficiently supply your cells with all the nutrients they require when they are in good health.


Symptoms of Poor Circulation

  • Pain in the legs, feet, arms, and hands
  • Cold hands and feet that ache or throb, especially upon warming
  • Insufficient oxygen and nutrition delivery to tissues
  • Stiffness and cramping due to impaired circulation

Frequently Asked Questions

Do hot drinks improve circulation?

Hot drinks like hot water expand blood vessels (vasodilation), which can briefly improve circulation, relax muscles, and reduce pain. While direct long-term benefits aren't proven, better circulation supports blood flow to muscles and organs.

What type of doctor treats poor circulation in legs?

A vascular doctor, specialist, or surgeon addresses vascular issues like blocked arteries and veins affecting circulation in the legs.

How can I check for poor circulation?

Compare the temperature of your hands or feet:

  • Normal: Warm fingers or toes.
  • Not normal: Cool or cold fingers or toes. Cover them with a blanket and check again in an hour.

Is ginger good for circulation?
