What nerves get damaged in the body from chemo? Is it generalized nerve damage or concentrated in one area?

That cold temperature must be brutal, even for only a couple of minutes. Brrrr...I hate being cold!

As the article says above, "These chemotherapy drugs are notorious for causing long-lasting pain or tingling in your hands, feet or legs." I am currently undergoing chemo and I have neuropathy in my hands. It darkens the color of my palms, causes numbness, and makes it hard to grasp objects, especially small ones like screws and paperclips.
