Maybe, maybe not: When a patient has raynaud's symptoms, his doctors will look for the common causes such as autoimmune disorders, drug side effects, hormonal imbalances, etc... If a causative disease is found, then the patient has "raynaud's syndrome". If the causative disease is resolved or put into remission, then the patient's raynaud's symptoms might go away (as long as the causative disease doesn't return).

Most likely: Your doctor will seek any other causes. Nuisance to deal, with, but not life threatening, .

Why is my big toenail dark blue from the cuticle up? About 6 weeks ago, my toenail started getting a dark-blue spot. My sister, who is a nurse, told me it might be raynaud's syndrome, a bruise, or a sign that my toenail is regrowing itself a replacement.
