Cold intolerance can be a symptom of a problem with metabolism.
Some people (often very thin women) do not tolerate cold temperatures because they have very little body fat to help keep them warm.
Follow the recommended therapy for treating the cause of the problem.
Call your health care provider if you have long-term or extreme intolerance to cold.
Your provider's questions may include the following topics.
Have you always been intolerant of cold?
Has it been getting worse?
Do you often feel cold when other people do not complain of being cold?
If your provider diagnoses cold intolerance, you may want to include the diagnosis in your personal medical record.
