A member asked:
Can the raynaud symptoms happen on patches of skin on the arms, thighs, or the trunk? or is it only on fingers, noses, and toes?
11 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Raynauds: Raynaud's phenomenon occurs when the extremities of the body, usually the fingers and toes, change colour and may become painful. It is due to a narrowing (constriction) of the small blood vessels on exposure to the cold, or to a change in temperature, or to emotional stress. In most cases, the cause is not known.
