Chemo cold cap, socks and mitts: Share your experiences

My daughter did her first chemo on Tuesday using the cold capping and mitts and socks. Today ( 2 days later) she is experiencing tender foot pads and they are quite red, is this typical?

@frantik223, I moved your post to this existing discussion where you can connect with members like @brighterdays @cancerwifemom @cjs123172 @conk @pinkybabar1962 @dlmdinia who used the cold cap. I'm not sure if they used the socks or mitts:

Did you share about her feet with her care team? I'm wondering if the socks may have been too cold for her or on too long. Did she experience anything similar from the cap or mitten?
