Chilled to the Bones: Understanding the Causes of Chronically Cold Feet

why are my feet always cold ? One common cause of cold feet is poor circulation. When blood flow to the extremities, such as the feet, is restricted, it can result in reduced warmth and a constant feeling of coldness. Conditions such as peripheral artery disease (PAD), diabetes, and Raynaud’s disease can all contribute to poor circulation in the feet. Lifestyle factors like smoking, lack of exercise, and sitting or standing for prolonged periods can also hinder proper blood flow.
