Thanks, stefspad, for this suggestion: "Best advice from my PT: whenever you think of it — whether standing, sitting or lying down — clench your buttocks for five seconds. You can't just think about your feet and hands, you have to consider the source: legs, arms, shoulders, buttocks and spine." This makes so much sense to me. Appreciate it too because with hypotension, I learned that if my b.p. suddenly dropped low enough to make me dizzy, clenching my fists tightly until I could sit down helped the blood circulation.
Experience numbness in hands and feet there is pain that may be from the arthritis. Along with the numbmess is the frigid temperature in the hands. Rice bags and Therabead mittens.
Any other suggestions?
