I was affected by Raynaud’s phenomen few months ago. Doctor told me it could get complicated with digital ulcers. This is something that frightens me. I would like to know how to prevent it and treat it. Does anyone have any kind of tip for me? I would really appreciate it.
Hi to you too. You shouldn’t be worried a lot. If you follow your doctor’s instructions, you should prevent digital ulcers from appearing. One of the most important steps is to quit smoking. You should also avoid vasoconstrictors like caffeine. If nifedipine is prescribed, take it regularly. Make your fingers warm. Ask your specialist for more details about this. Digital ulcers can also be caused by systemic scleroderma. Good luck!
