Raynaud's phenomenon

Raynaud’s affects your blood circulation. When you’re cold, anxious or stressed, your fingers and toes may change colour. You could also feel some pain or numbness in your fingers or toes. It is common and usually it doesn’t cause severe problems.


Management:

  • Smoking cessation is the most important lifestyle measure.
  • Avoid exposure to cold and keep your feet and hands warm.
  • Is you can change your duties at work or occupation? (If helpful)
  • If it doesn’t work we might give you some medications: CCB such as nifedipine

Safety netting: continuous pain - symptoms in one side - ulcers - persistent change in colour
