How do I deal with Raynaud's disease in the winter on a farm? |
I've recently begun to work on a farm. It gets very cold here in winter but I have to work outside dealing with wet stuff and cold stuff all the time. Previously I have dealt with my Raynaud's disease by wearing gloves, but when it's cold and wet and dirty and muddy these aren't much good. Does anyone know if there is medication I can take (such as vasodilators) to stop my arteries spasming? Or is there someone else in my situation who can think of an answer? I don't have an answer, but I wish you best of luck. My sister has Raynaud's, but she lives in Fla. Not cold there, but she still has to deal with the temp change between outside and inside with air conditioning. My only suggestion would be to try to find another job..... |
