Digital ulcers, also known as digital ischemia, can cause pitting or sores on the fingers and can be a sign of severe Raynaud’s.

These sores occur when blood flow to the fingers is significantly restricted, often triggered by cold or stress, and they can increase the risk of infection or other complications if not treated promptly.

Raynaud’s Awareness Month is a great reminder to stay informed about the signs and symptoms of this condition.

💡 Want to learn more about Raynaud’s and how to manage it? Join our upcoming webinar with the Raynaud’s Association.
