What causes men's hands to turn purple?

Compared with men, women tend to have colder bodies, so they are more likely to have purple hands. But men are generally more masculine, so if you have purple hands like women, you must seek treatment as soon as possible, because it may mean that there is something wrong with your body. So what exactly causes it? Let's introduce it today.

What causes purple fingers?

1. Circulation disorders

1. A weak heart cannot supply blood to the extremities of the body.

2. Anemia: insufficient circulating blood volume or low hemoglobin and red blood cells.

3. The body's blood vessels will contract and the blood return ability will be weakened, causing poor blood circulation in the hands and feet, especially the fingertips, which is often called "poor peripheral circulation."

2. Insufficient Yang

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that cold hands and feet are a kind of "closure syndrome". The so-called "closure" means obstruction. Affected by factors such as cooler weather or cold body, the liver veins are affected by cold, and the liver's hematopoietic function is affected, resulting in insufficient kidney yang, cold limbs, red or white hands and feet, and even pain.

3. Hormonal changes caused by menstruation and childbirth

Women make up the majority of people who suffer from cold hands and feet. This is because hormonal changes affect the nervous system, causing subcutaneous blood vessels to constrict and blood flow to decrease, thus causing colds.

4. Disease Factors

Raynaud's disease, Raynaud's phenomenon, and multiple arteritis are more common in young women, while thromboangiitis occlusiveis is more common in middle-aged men.
