I've got Raynaud's syndrome and I feel like it's getting worse. I don't know if it's age or if it's just that we're having a chilly spring but I'm really conscious of how cold and painful my hands are. They are always ridiculous colours (bright red, purplish, white blotches) and they feel so stiff, sore and achy when they get cold. It's like they seize up and I can't use my hands properly to do simple things like use my mobile touchscreen.
I've also had a couple of really sore chilblains this winter.
I spoke to the doctor about it years ago and she basically told me there's nothing they can do and I just need to keep warm/wear gloves.
Has anyone got any experience of this? Have you found anything that helps? Do I need to go back to the GP?
