My right side thumb gets cold it seams as though it is not getting proper blood flow. What can I do what kind of a specialist I go to.?
Hand surgeon. I would need a little more info to properly guide you. It sounds vascular. I would first start with a hand surgeon and consider a vascular surgeon or neurologist.
