"Raynaud's Phenomenon" is a condition that causes a person to have pain in the fingers, but the pain can be located in other areas of the body as well. The doctor who refers to this as "Raynaud's Phenomenon" does not really know why the condition occurs but he believes it may be related to problems with the nerves that control the hand. He also says that the condition can occur due to many different things such as genetics, lifestyle, and illness. It is important that a doctor diagnoses the problem to be able to treat it.
Finger pain is common in people who have Raynaud's disease
This can occur in any part of the body but the most common locations of pain are the upper back, right side of the chest and the lower left arm.
If you suffer from the pain in your hands, there are many things that you can do to help reduce the pain. However, if the pain is due to the disease and is diagnosed correctly, you can find treatments to help reduce the pain.
Medication is a way of dealing with pain in the fingers. There are many different pain medications that can be used to deal with pain in the hands. You should talk to your doctor about how many or what types of medication that you want to take because they can vary greatly.
Other treatments can be done at home as well. One of the first things you will need to do when you have a diagnosis of the disease is to visit your doctor. Then you should see if you can get an appointment with a chiropractor or physical therapist so that they can work on your joints. A doctor can also prescribe over the counter pain medication that you can take without a prescription.
If you still want to deal with the pain with pain medication then it is best to start taking a medication on your own and talk with your doctor about what you are doing. You should also talk with your chiropractor about the types of treatment that you want to use for your hands and other areas of the body. A doctor will also be able to determine if you need surgery to help relieve the pain in your hands. Surgery will not only help ease the pain but can also help correct the problem that caused the pain in the first place.
Some people will find relief from hand pain by using heat therapy or ice
They can find that using heat to help reduce the pain is easier than going to a doctor. For those who have problems with the arms or the lower back it is often best to use ice.
Life style changes are another thing that can help deal with this problem. A lot of doctors recommend losing weight if you have high blood pressure because it can cause the arteries in the hands to harden making it harder for the fingers to move properly.
If you are a smoker it is best to stop smoking or at least limit the number of cigarettes you smoke each day to prevent the arteries in the hands from hardening. Exercising the hands will also help your circulation by increasing circulation of blood to the affected areas.
If you cannot deal with the problem on your own then there is a chance that surgery may be necessary to fix the problem. You can go to a surgeon that specializes in hand surgery to talk to them about the condition and if they feel that surgery is needed. They will let you know if the condition is serious enough to warrant surgery. and if you can afford it you may be covered by insurance to have surgery.
The surgery for Raynaud's is called arthroscopic surgery and it is the most invasive type of surgery that is done for this condition. Your doctor will remove part of the joint so that the nerves are not damaged in the affected area. The surgery can be done on either the affected area or on the finger itself.
After the surgery there may be some bruising and swelling and redness from the surgery and you may not be able to do the things that you normally do with the fingers for a while after it is over. You will also be told to take pain medication.
