When ever my hands touch anything cold or I'm outside and the weather is cold or windy my hands swell up quite badly. It becomes very difficult and painful to bend my fingers. This has been happening for the last two years now and I am worried that it is going to continure for the rest of my life. I am 23 years old.

Thankyou

MY TOES GET RED HOT EVERY NIGHT CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT IT IS,ITS MOST UNCOMFERTABULL.

Hello,

I am 30 and have suffered itching when I exercise, go in the cold, it rains (and cold rain hit my legs), or generally when I walk in the wind, no matter what weather. It starts with a tingling sensation and this then becomes uncontrollable itching which takes my breath away and will stop me in my tracks to itch it. If I try to resists I will be in tears with the sensation and my body will be really itching, if I itch the skin, then it will become hot and red and the need to itch will worsen. Sometimes I have itched so hard and much to the point of drawing blood. Once I am seated in the warm and had a good cry/itch it stops.
This is ruining my quality of life as I simply cannot walk out in the country in the wind/cold. I cannot run for exercise and at work when I meet with clients I am often late if I have had to walk any distance in these circumstances from constantly stopping. My GP has no idea, the chemist have no idea and I am at my wits end.

It also seems to happen when vibration occurs or if I rub lotion into my skin like in a massage.

I have tried to see if this is due to an alregic reaction but it seems to be something else. It doesn't quite fit chillblains or Reynauds.

PLEASE HELP!

i got it last year, it was really bad and i couldnt walk, so i went to the doctors and he said to keep my toes warm. i used to put my feet in warm water a few times a day and it really helped! one of my toes is a bit red and swollen but it doesnt hurt and its barely noticable

I really don't know what's wrong with my blood circulation! :(

I've always had this problem. It's my hands & feet. My feet are always white/purple aswell as really cold, and my toes are purple, and sometimes I do get chilblains, where my toes swell up etc.

My hands are worse. They tend to go cold a lot, either turn bright red and hot(and can see veins stick out more) or deep purple and cold. When they go purple I also notice patchs of orange and white.

This only happens when my hands are down by my side, and its only like 10 seconds after putting my hands down by my side they change colour.

My GP doesn't have much to say really :( he said I have a 'hyper reactive circulation', or something like that? He also said there's nothing I can do about it. He said it 'might' be raynaud's disease. Still no help or cure apparntly =/

When I walk the dog or something I always look down and can see brightly couloured purple/redy/orangey hands… I just wanna chop them off to be honest.

Also, theres been a couple of wierd happenings. I've woken up in the morning or the middle of the night in real bad pain in the tips of 3 of my fingers, the left side of my nose, and my whole left arm. My fingers and nose were really painful, felt like they were seriously bruised or something, these lasted for about 2-3 days! My arm was just DEAD for about 10 minutes, couldn't move it in the slightist, and when I woke up that night I wasnt lieing on it.

Anyway..
IS MY CONDITION AND I HELPLESS ??

I am 15 and have had enough of these horrid skin breaking itchy things. Each night they becomes very painful and the itching is indescribable, it’s a itching that will not go away and has no satisfaction when itched, it just hurts and gets worse. I have also developed a few in my fingers this year. Is this to do with bad blood circulation? A few years ago I was diagnosed with Reynaud’s, but since that that has become worse, my hand go blue and purple even when I don’t feel cold! I am constantly being teased about it as it’s the first thing people notice about me. Also my toes go black when I get in the bath. Sorry to ramble on, I’ve just had enough and am so scared how fast they have progressed.

Hi, i'm 15 years old. And my legs and feet are constantly purple and cold all the time
sometimes they get orange like colour rashes too what is this?
