Brief Answer:
For how long has this been going on?

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.


I am so sorry to hear about the difference in temperature between the right and he left hand. This in most cases is a transient observation. I will like to know for how long this has been going on. Also, have you tried dressing warm and this doesn't improve? I will not recommend seeking further medical attention at this time unless there is something more about this that you have not mentioned. if you have any other symptoms, please let me know.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be as well as provide responses to the above questions.
