You could have Raynaud’s Phenomenon,it occurs when the extremities of the body, usually the fingers and toes, change colour and may become painful. It is due to a narrowing (constriction) of the small blood vessels on exposure to the cold, or to a change in temperature, or to emotional stress. In most cases, the cause is not known. In some cases, Raynaud’s is a symptom of an underlying condition such as scleroderma, lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. Treatment is to keep warm. Drugs to open up the blood vessels are used in some cases. See your doctor for a proper diagnosis.
