Hello. You may want to ask your doctor about erythromelalgia. It’s basically the opposite of Raynauds. A few of us have both. It’s a burning like a bad sunburn, redness and swelling. The blood vessels overdilate instead of constricting like Raynauds. I hope you don’t have both because it’s harder to treat since the meds can trigger one or the other. Take care.
