Abstract
When cold intolerance occurs in the injured hand, it is persistent in the majority of cases (79 per cent). Statistically, there is a link between the development of cold intolerance and the incidence of early postoperative pain. Postoperative pain relief should be of high quality and may possibly prevent the onset of cold intolerance.
