wow I got cold feet literally

[applepie]

went to the doc this morning because one of my toes was swollen and hurt when touched. when he inspected it, he said something like err you do know 3 other toes are also inflamed and red.

quick look at the other foot, right you are doc! didnt even notice

apparently I have some chillblain? chillpain? or some malarky like that. basically too cold

but it should heal in a weeks time or so, but it itches and hurts like a bugger. apparently due to the blood flow back into the toes. right.....

anyway have reaquistioned a small heater fan for my office now so i no longer freeze my arse off!

hmm wonder if I can claim from those injurylaws4you kinda thing and join the bandwagon of stupid lawsuits

Chillblains.

Pain in the ar$e, or foot, actually. Yes, they itch like mad!

I used to get them and I was told they were caused by feet getting too cold, then rapidly warmed, like putting them on a hot water bottle, or to close to a heat source.

I haven't had them for a few years now, basically, because I try not to let my feet get cold, and if they do, I warm them with socks or rubbing rather than a radiator.

I had frostbite in one finger and it still tingles win cold damp weather. I should have got it chopped off but it's my special signalling finger when I'm driving...
