Hi Frances, my Raynauds is normally in my hands and fingers,but never had bloating, I think you should speak with your doctor about this issue, to set your mind at rest.

Hi Frances, I agree with the comments above. Raynauds does not really lead to bloating, or swelling in the hands. The circulation is shutting down, so it is rare to get swelling...that tends to happen when your hands are hot and warm.

I would go to your GP and get a general check up. Having a problem with your heart is not associated with Raynauds, although of course if your heart is not working as well as possible then all your circulation throughout the body will be effected.

All my best
