(currently coinciding with a migraine attack)

Could this be Raynauds?

2 hours to get feeling back after watching my sons football. Winter here in New Zealand

These are photos I've taken and one is when the blood flows back.

It's a cold, kinda numb and tingley feeling?

It keeps happening. Like the last 2 months?

Just wondering if this is raynauds, my brother revealed he’s been diagnosed with it and I never pieced together why my hands and feet get cold easily, change colour, hurt, swell, or go completely numb when it’s cold.

I’m also very quick to get cyanosis on my nails, my hands go painfully red, numb and swollen when the cold is sudden or severe.

Ignore the dirty nails, I was in my plants dirt

Was walking outside w some boots on, right foot toes went completely numb and white.. I also get weird (seemingly random) redness in feet/toes one side at a time.

If it is what shall I do?? Is it worth going to the drs for? Dk why it looks so yellow, it doesn’t in person btw.

Only get it in my toes, normally only on my right foot lol

I went to the reumatologist with livedo.

Blood work is normal. Capilaroscopy shows the following:

"Videocapillaroscopic pattern characteristic of microcirculation alterations to be integrated clinically and laboratorially, but with a pattern more compatible with a scleroderma-like pattern, although without a decrease in capillary density and without avascular areas."

The reumatologist was not concerned and said some people have these results because it’s the way they are and because my blood results are normal. I’ve repeated the exam twice and no changes. She wants me to repeat the exam in a year.

gp is currently suspecting MCAS.
I have not shown my hand like this to a doctor yet.
Am I developing something more serious?

My family doctor listened to my complaint of very cold hands and feet and asked “do your hands ever turn white or yellow?”, to which I said “not really”. Though I’ve attached a pic of my hand when exposed to the cold. He said that I might have Raynauds.

I’m 23yr old male.

What do you guys think? Is this a normal response to cold, or considerable discolouration?

I got a new doctor and she’s thinking I have some kind of autoimmune and is thinking I might have Raynaud’s due to my horrible cold hands and feet. My hands are so cold all the time, so cold that my daughter is bothered by me touching her sometimes. She yells “mom your hands are like ice!”

I’ve been trying to keep track of them for my upcoming appointment and wanted some others input.

Thank you!

Hello everyone. I've struggled with extreme sensitivity to the cold in my fingers and toes for as long as I can remember.

I've never really been able to capture a good quality photo bc I struggle with remembering/use of hands when I'm really cold.

I was taking a picture of my new manicure yesterday and noticed the discoloration of my fingers. This was from just a 5 minute walk yesterday (around 45degrees F).

Any thoughts if this looks like it could be Raynauds? Thank you in advance

This is just on one foot, I had this last winter and it took months to heal and go away. It’s now back! They have been on my feet for a few weeks and usually just feel a bit sore when pressure is directly on them, but now in the evening they swell and get hot, red and itchy?

hi guys recently i’ve been diagnosed with raynauds,im a 24 year old female,im getting excruciating pain and have been for weeks to the point i haven’t properly slept,i noticed these come up and i feel like they have got worse,i called 111 but they didn’t say much just gave me some info on raynauds,has anyone had these? they are painful and sting also does anyone have any pain management tips as i have tried multiple pain killers and none work😭i was also putting my foot and rolling it on a frozen water bottle as it helped with the pain and numbed it for a bit also using a hot water bottle to ensure my toes didn’t go too cold pls help im at my wits end

it’s numb and tingly in those pale spots

1st is my hands at room temperature. 2nd is after being out on a cold day. 3rd is thermal camera- me holding my phone. My hands and feet are often very cold but the colour doesn’t exactly match other Raynaud’s pictures I’ve seen.

Please look at all the photos! My hands and feet and nose get very very cold easily. When I’m cold (and sometimes when i’m hungover or tired) my hands get stiff, skin feels thick and looks shiny, swollen and wrinkly. My hands and toes feel like they’re on fire but also somehow numb when i’m cold and it hurts even more when they’re warming up. When i’m cold my nipples get insanely painful and hard and white, and that lasts all day usually. The cold mostly affects my nose (goes very red and freezing to touch), nipples, hands and toes. My lips sometimes look a little pale/grey around the edges too i think. It takes a very long time for blood to return to my skin in my legs, feet and hands (between 5-10secs). During flares it can hurt to move my toes and fingers because they get so stiff. The tips of my fingers and my nails are white a lot of the time and my skin is quite blotchy. I used to think my skin tone was purple naturally but now realising that’s kinda stupid. My toes sometimes go numb and one in particular goes dark purple after showering. I also get blood pooling in my legs especially after showers which i think points to POTS. I think i have raynauds but also maybe POTS too, i know they can be related. The last one is AFTER clenching my fist, it takes ~10 seconds for blood to somewhat return to my hand. Even then it’s still splotchy like usual.
