Raynaud's PhenomenonRaynaud's phenomenon is a problem with blood flow. Your body doesn't send enough blood to your hands and feet, so they feel very cold and numb. In most cases, this lasts for a short time when your body overreacts to cold temperatures.There are two kinds of Raynaud's phenomenon. Primary Raynaud's is also known as Raynaud's disease. It occurs on its own and is the most common form. Secondary Raynaud's is also called Raynaud's syndrome. It most often forms as part of another disease.People may not talk to a doctor about symptoms of Raynaud's. For most people, it is more of a nuisance than a disability.What causes Raynaud's phenomenon?Primary Raynaud's has no known cause. Secondary Raynaud's may be a symptom of another disease such as lupus, scleroderma, rheumatoid arthritis, or atherosclerosis. Taking certain medicines, using vibrating power tools for several years, smoking, or having frostbite may also cause Raynaud's.Certain things, such as stress and taking certain medicines, can trigger an attack. But the most common trigger is exposure to cold. In the cold, it's normal for the body to narrow the small blood vessels to the skin and to open the blood vessels to the inside parts of the body to keep the body warm. But with Raynaud's, the body overreacts and restricts blood flow through the small vessels to the skin more than necessary.An attack most often lasts only a few minutes. But in some cases it may last more than an hour.Treatment;If you have secondary Raynaud's that is caused by another disease, your doctor can treat that disease. This may relieve your symptoms.There is no cure for primary Raynaud's, but you may be able to control it by avoiding the things that trigger it. These triggers include cold temperatures, stress, smoking, caffeine & cold medicines.
Living with Lupus is often a battle not just against the illness itself, but also against the emotional weight of uncertainty, fatigue, and the toll of long-term medications. For one courageous woman, that battle began in 2013. Diagnosed after Lupus had already affected her joints and internal organs, she was quickly placed on medication that initially helped. But as time went on, her health declined again this time with more frequent flare-ups and increasingly difficult side effects. Like many others with chronic illness, she faced the crushing weight of hopelessness. Each day became harder than the last, and conventional treatments no longer offered the comfort they once did. But in March 2020, at her lowest point, she made a decision that changed everything.Out of desperation and with a healthy dose of skepticism she turned to NaturePath Herbal Clinic, hoping their natural Lupus treatment might offer at least some relief.
