No tricolor. Just cold to red

I think how the Raynauds affects you is different for each person, and may be different for the extremities (ie hands have different reaction than feet/lower legs). 

For me, my upper extremities turn red initially when in the cold and are white to the touch. My lower body goes red and blue immediately. My right leg is much more affected and is a constant red, blue, and bruised color. 

I’m guessing you live somewhere cold. In the winter everything is much, much worse. 

For reference I have secondary and have had it all my life. 

Hi, it sounds a lot like erythromelagia; like Raynauds, it affects the small vasculature but causes redness and intense heat in the affected area (I have it in my hands, but it has lessened as the effects of Raynaud's have progressed).

Hope this helps. 

Mine didn't hurt to begin with, like you, just hot and red but as time went on, a sort of toothache pain developed when it was happening.It hasn't gone away but I then  went on to develop Raynaud's phenomenon and as this worsened, cold fingers, the erythromelagia now only happens in the evening when typing and CH is on. It doesn't seem to go, if you look at the literature but GPs often haven't heard of it and need a bit of a prod for a diagnosis.

I don't take any painkillers for it, the advice as far as I can see is to elevate the affected parts. It began in 2012 in the summer and was confined to warm weather to begin with but now it can happen with hoovering etc, CH in the winter. The same blood vessels are now being affected by both erythromelagia (an increase in their girth with a rush of blood) and Raynaud's which causes constriction to the vessels  and poor blood supply. Do your fingers turn colour if you have been out in the cold, the two often go together?

I was a mechanic for railroad for 27 years and always used big impact guns to break loose nuts and bolts the spinning and vibration of the gun over the years caused me to get carpal tunnel had operation on both hands too separate the bundle of veins and nerves shortly after that I was dianoised with Raynaud’s disease because my fingers would go numb turning white to blue and then black in the beginning it would take my fingers 15 minutes to return to normal and that was after massaging them soaking them in like warm water and placing them next to a heater now 22years later it takes up to 1 hour to get my feeling back and the pain is unbelivelely I get it in the summer time and even more so in the winter and I also noticed that if I frazzled my nerves can cause it I’m so beside myself cause when it happens I can’t hold onto anything cause I have no feeling now these days I’m also have my feet turning whit in the shower and they are numb also it a progressive disease and never stops drs offer pills and according to all the stories I read about taking this pills people are losing fingers and limbs so I suggest u never go on that type of regiment I’ve used every type of warm gloves and discovered that that therapy doesn’t work neither so I don’t know what to do except live with it and of all the stories I read nobody has ever said that they had the last color change of black which freaks me out cause  this is when I can lose fingers to gangreign I wish you the best of luck and that god will cure tat disease write back and let me know of your views me thanks for reading sincerely me frozen
