This is common. How many treatments has he completed? Some used the cold gloves and socks to limit blood flow thru these extremities during the Oxaliplatin portion of the infusions. This should improve over the many months post-treatment.
The mittens and socks worked for me. I had tingling on my tongue though when drinking cold beverages. It passed over a month or so.
