Hi all I suffer from raynauds/vasculitis. For 5 days my second toe has felt odd. It keeps cramping up there is no pain but a pinching sensation. I am scared of loosing my toes due to the severity of the raynauds. Please someone tell me I wont loose my toe. Anyone experienced this before? Any advice or reassurence would be greatly appreciated x

I have Raynaud’s phenomenon. I have had 3 foot surgeries for tarsal tunnel syndrome and neromas in both feet. Recently my big toe has been red ,sore and sensitive and tends to be cold. I was concerned about lack of circulation and infection possible. My doctor attributed the problems to both the Rynaud’s and the surgery’s have been recent and I’m sure my circulation is not the best. I can tell you many years ago when I was first diagnosed with Rynaud’s my toes would cramp up but it wouldn’t last very long. I would go to your doctor to get it looked at for peace of mind and also wearing socks and keeping your feet warm helps. Your blood vessels constrict in your toes and hands when you suffer from Rynaud’s. Sometimes stress and to much caffeine causes the symptoms to be worse.
I hope I helped you! Take care and get your toe looked at by your doctor just to be sure.
