I agree that exercise and sleep are keys, but I do believe chronically cold hands is a serious problem that needed to be remedied.

- louprado 10y agoI'd definitely recommend fingerless gloves during the colder months as they do not interfere with typing or trackpads. Given that I have chronically cold hands only during the winter months, I'll assume that it isn't something that warrants concern.
- SiVal 10y agoJust a thought in case it helps someone: a family member of mine always had cold hands, and a doctor prescribed a special prescription antiperspirant. Making his hands dry also made them warmer.
- dragonwriter 10y agoSweating is a cooling mechanism, so reducing sweating (ceteris paribus) should reduce cooling.

- EvilTerran 10y agoIndeed - painfully cold hands could be Raynaud's, which is a symptom of a number of syndromes (of varying severity): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raynaud_syndrome https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raynaud_syndrome
- Broken_Hippo 10y agoI get cold hands - more appropriately, a cold right hand - if I'm using a wired mouse. A wireless mouse keeps my hand warm. That said, the suggestion about fingerless gloves is spot-on. Some folks just get cold easier: For me, cold hands could just be related to hormones (female here). Chronic due to the recurring nature of it all, but seriously not a big deal.
