23 September 2015  If you’re one of the estimated 10 million adults in the UK suffering with Raynaud’s Disease then you’ll know the daily struggle of needing to keep your hands warm. Cold hands and fingers, or feet and toes are a sure sign that you may be suffering from Raynaud’s, which is triggered by poor blood flow and compromised circulation in the hands. |
22 September 2015  Raynaud’s Disease Symptoms may be most commonly in the hands, but they can also affect your feet. Toes are just as vulnerable to Raynaud’s as fingers and can suffer the same colour-changes as blood supply is cut off. With the feet being some of the coldest areas of the body, and not easily as warmed as hands which can simply be rubbed together, keeping feet feeling warm can be quite the task! |
21 September 2015  Raynaud’s Disease may have no cure, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be managed. Taking measures against attacks of Raynaud’s doesn’t complicated and, thanks to our great range of products, can be done from the comfort of your own home! |
21 September 2015  We may have a plethora of items to help you understand how to best manage Raynaud’s Disease, but do you know what causes it? Neither do we, in fact, in the case of Primary Raynaud’s, nobody does! Unprompted by anything apparent, you may have heard it being called “Raynaud’s Phenomenon” due to its mysterious nature. Secondary Raynaud’s Disease, on the other hand, is caused by a pre-existing health condition, medications or long-term damage to the area. |
21 September 2015  The winter months are upon us and we’re all about to start feeling the chill, cue furious hand-rubbing, the futile search for the other glove, and hugging your morning coffee for hand-heating goodness – until Raynaud’s stops you in your tracks. If you’re one of the ten million UK sufferers of Raynaud’s disease you’ll be all too aware that these usual thermal remedies just aren’t enough to keep out the cold. With Raynaud’s Disease affecting your blood flow, hands turn white with the chill and living with this condition through the winter months can be incredibly uncomfortable and disruptive to your routine. |
21 September 2015  Frosty fingers are the most common signs of Raynaud’s Disease and a sure sign that an “attack” is underway. Triggered by changes in temperature that can be caused by the weather, holding a frosty drink or even reaching into the fridge for something, a Raynaud’s Phenomenon attack causes the blood vessels of the hands (and sometimes the toes, lips, ears or nose) to spasm, stopping blood flow and eventually causing the area to turn white. |
