Living in a cold climate with raynaud's, what can i do?

Always plan ahead: Cold temperatures are a main cause of raynaud's phenomenon, so cold weather can trigger symptoms. If a person has only mild symptoms, he can keep his hands, feet, face, and ears warm with well-insulated clothing. The newest gadgets (such as heated gloves and heated socks) from winter sports stores may help. Using portable heaters, pre-warming the car, keeping dry, etc..., are helpful ideas.

Protection: Gloves when outside or picking from fridge or freezer warmers- some nice disposable packets pre warm car etc some benefit with vasodilators.
