I'm trying apple cider vinegar but so far limited success

Last week I’ve actually tried soaking my finger in vinegar then I poured salt on it and put a bandaid over it. I kept it on overnight. It actually bothered me more , however in the morning when I took it off I felt it made a difference. It brought my calcinosis up and some of those darn painful white particles came out over the following 2 days. It is not infected anymore an it’s healing and definitely not quite as painful. My finger got infected 7 weeks ago and my rheumatologist had given an antibiotic for 3 weeks …it helped but didn’t take all the infection away. I will definitely do this again

Hi, I know about Nifedipine medication being good for that.

Stop the caffeine

Thank you for your reply but definitely don’t like the answer…I love my cup of coffee in the morning…do you stay away from all caffeine? This has obviously helped you …

I apologize for answering without all the information. I did not understand where the calcium was deposited or what the symptoms were. It seems from the previous replies and suggestions that you have a handle on this. My response was not related to your specific condition and that further reinforces my need to keep my mouth shut. 🙃

Good luck with the treatments you have found helpful.

Honestly I believe caffeine should be in moderation as it affects the Reynauds which affects the calcification… so yes… thank you again!
