Hi, I am 33 years old. I have problems with my feet. Every time when temperature is low my feet are like ice. Also they turn white and it hurt a lot. Every time I say that to my husband he laughs and says that I am made of silk. Eventually pain has become so unpleasant that I went to a doctor. He says that I have something called raynaud's phenomena. Doctor didn't give any treatment; he says it is not so severe. How to treat it?
It is not necessary to use medications in mild cases of raynaud's disease. Self care is enough. But if you think that your condition is severe enough you can ask for second opinion. Usually prescribed medications are calcium channel blockers (nifedipine, amlodipine, nisoldipine etc.), alpha blockers (prazosin and doxazosin) or vasodilators (nitroglycerin cream).
