Cold hand: Check the pulse in your wrists and make sure they are equally strong. Cold hand could be caused by lack of blood circulation due to trauma, anatomical obstruction or peripheral arterial disease. Talk to your doctor to find out what may be the cause of your condition.

Subclavian steal?: A study called "arterial doppler" may show why your left hand is not getting enough blood (looks like that could be the problem) it may be an anatomical problem (subclavian steal syndrome, blood vessel compression), or possibly a result of an old trauma, sometimes very minor (called "rsd") your history and other signs are very important to make the diagnosis.
