The oxygen rich blood is usually pumped out of the heart from the left side. It is then pumped to the various parts of the body.
Your right hand is the hand that is above your right foot.
It is possible for blood clots to obstruct blood flow. It's not likely that all of the blood flow to your hand could be blocked, though.
Increased blood-flow and oxygen levels cause the fingernails to grow faster!
No, the right hand is contralateral to the right foot. Ipsilateral refers to structures on the same side of the body while contralateral refers to structures on the opposite side of the body.
It is most likely that your symptom is caused by a significantly decreased blood flow to your right hand - you should seek professional medical attention immediately.
A blood cell in the right hallux, or big toe on a human's right foot, would flow up the right leg and then across the abdomen and up the left side where it would enter the top left chamber of the heart. From here it would travel to the lungs where it would transfer out carbon dioxide and take in fresh oxygen. From the lungs it would travel to the right side of the heart then pumped out to the body. To get to the right pollex, or thumb on a human's right hand, it would follow the arteries that travel down the right shoulder and arm and into the hand.
No, applying ice causes vasoconstriction, which reduces blood flow to the area. Ice helps to decrease inflammation and swelling by restricting blood flow. Heat, on the other hand, can increase blood flow and promote healing in some situations.

The difference of color is because of blood. When you lower your hand, more blood will flow into it from gravity. When your hand is above your head, blood flows back into your body.
Blood flow begins in the right atrium, where deoxygenated blood is pumped into the right ventricle and then into the pulmonary artery to the lungs for oxygenation. Once oxygenated, blood returns to the left atrium via the pulmonary veins, moves into the left ventricle, and is then pumped into the aorta. From the aorta, blood travels through the subclavian artery, the brachial artery, and into the radial or ulnar arteries to reach the hand, specifically the arteries supplying the fifth digit. After delivering oxygen, deoxygenated blood returns through the digital veins, the radial or ulnar veins, the brachial vein, and back to the heart via the superior vena cava into the right atrium.
