What Causes Extreme Cold Sensation In An Anaemic Person?

I was wanting to know if I should go to the doctor or not. I am an anemic teen who is known for my issues w/ my iron. Lately, I came upon an issue I was not for certain with. I was often cold all the time so I immediately thought that this was another symptom that I hadn t yet been familiar with. Well, lately I would touch cold things. A few seconds later my fingers would have this terrible pain at the tips for a couple of minutes. After it calms down, they start to swell , turn reddish, and go numb. I can t touch anything cold now. I don t know if this is serious or just something that happens when my iron is low. Any suggestions on what I should do?

I really appreciate your concern, you have not given what kind of symptoms you have? you have not mentioned what level of iron you have? you even not mentioned the your age and gender ? so it difficult to comment anything, if it is just your doubt that your are having low iron level then better to see the doctor it is the best option you have hope this information helps.
