Painful Nails

Good Afternoon everyone,

Does anyone else have issues with your fingernails with PA? I have found that almost on a daily basis, my nails go blue/purple, really painful and really numb. I do a sequence of hand exercises to get the blood flowing which seems to help it pass. I had my first injections last week and the nail issue seemed to pass but today they're back to what they were doing previously. Blue, painful and freezing. I just wanted to see if other people were experiencing this and if you had any advice on how to deal with it.

Thanks

VB
