What Causes Cold Sensation In The Feet And Ankles?
My toes feel cold and damp mainly in my left foot. My right foot has some of the same symptoms but not as bad. I have RA and some bone and joint damage in my feet. I am taking Humira, Methotrexate, Lyrica and prednisone. The cold sensation also radiates up the top of my foot almost to my ankle. Thanks

Hi,
Your symptoms seem to be nerve compression in the affected region, by damaged/deformed joints.on your feet.
Some medications like nerve rejuvenators/vitamin B12 supplement/physiotherapy along with anti-inflammatory drugs to relieve inflammations would be needed.
Meet your rheumatologist for specific advice.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
