have had symmetrical redness across all distal fingers not as much on thumbs. almost looks sunburned and has some light brown border around rash like a hyperpigmentation. any clue what this may be?

I get something a bit like this. I suspect that it's just a bit of damage from the raynauds, I don't tend to worry about it too much, I just keep my hands well moisturised, I find that Lidl's intensive hand cream very good.

thank you

what ingredients does the cream have. I have been using Cerave and Eucerin as a moisturizing cream. Are there specific tests for the raynauds

Yes, the raynauds and scleroderma society fund tests so get in touch with them. The cream has a lot of ingredients tbh, but it's one that I find really helpful.
