being cold in theatre
hello i’m just a medical student, and i’m not surgically inclined but very open to it. the one problem i have is that i just get so freezing in theatre. it may be a problem with bad circulation but it gets to the point where i can barely control my hands because of how frozen they are! i’m honestly so scared of dropping things because of this. i’ve tried rubbing them, moving them and everything but it doesn’t help much.
this is fine when i’m watching, but even when scrubbing in and maybe for the future as well if i want to do things in theatre i feel like it’s impossible. the theatre isn’t even that cold overall, maybe around 10-20 degrees depending on what they set it at. i don’t even feel that cold but my hands decide to lose all blood flow for some reason. they also get a bit blue sometimes even at 20 degrees
does anyone have any tips or ideas on what i can do to help with this?? no one else i know really has this problem
