What Causes Cold Foot After An Injury?

Hello I had a motorbike accident a few days ago I was very lucky only had a small fracture to my pelvis and tear to my ligaments in my knee? But since then my foot on the side of my injuries has been really cold and nothing I do can warm it up is this normal?

Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you got a motorcycle accident but you was lucky enough that you got less injury . You are worried about that your foot on side of injury is cold. I think it may be due to some sympathetic disturbances. It will gradually improve itself. However you are advised to get your angiography of lower limb done to exclude arterial injury.You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it. I do hope that you have found something helpful. If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your queries. Wishing you good health. Take care.
