A 'billable code' is detailed enough to be used to specify a medical diagnosis. In medicine, Raynaud's disease or Raynaud's phenomenon (pronunciation: /reɪˈnoʊz/ ray-NOHZ) is excessively reduced blood flow in response to cold or emotional stress, causing discoloration of the fingers, toes, and occasionally other areas.

Raynaud's phenomenon (also called Raynaud's disease or Raynaud's syndrome) is a disorder that affects the blood vessels in the fingers and toes. Blood vessels in the nose, lips or ear lobes may also be affected.
Raynaud's phenomenon is a disorder that causes decreased blood flow to the fingers. In some cases, it also causes less blood flow to the ears, toes, nipples, knees, or nose. Spasms of blood vessels happen in response to cold, stress, or emotional upset.
Summary. Raynaud's phenomenon is the short-term interruption of blood flow to the extremities, such as the fingers and toes. Raynaud's phenomenon may be a sign of an underlying autoimmune disorder such as scleroderma or lupus, so it's important to see your doctor for diagnosis.
Raynaud's phenomenon can usually be diagnosed after an examination of your symptoms and some blood tests. Your GP may place your hands in cold water or cool air to see if you show symptoms of Raynaud's. Further testing is usually recommended to find out whether you have primary or secondary Raynaud's.
Most people who have a rare disease that leads to hardening and scarring of the skin (scleroderma) have Raynaud's. Other diseases that increase the risk of Raynaud's include lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and Sjogren's syndrome.
A major clinical distinction between primary and secondary Raynaud's is that patients with primary Raynaud's phenomenon do not get digital ulcers, gangrene, or signs of tissue injury. Only about one-third of scleroderma patients with severe secondary Raynaud's develop ischemic digital ulcers.
Raynaud's phenomenon is an important clinical sign of asymptomatic systemic disease.
Raynaud's phenomenon is a type of vasculitis, or narrowing of the blood vessels. Both conditions are a result of an overactive immune system, which triggers inflammation in the body.
Raynaud's phenomenon is common and does not usually cause severe problems. You can often treat the symptoms yourself by keeping warm. Sometimes it can be a sign of a more serious condition.
(People exposed to cold weather are well aware of these mechanisms.) Cold, of course, is the main trigger in Raynaud's phenomenon, although roughly one-third of patients experience it in response to stress and anxiety -- another indication that the condition is neurological and even psychological in origin.
Secondary Raynaud's (Raynaud's syndrome, Raynaud's phenomenon) results from another illness. It's often a condition that attacks your body's connective tissues, like lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. It's less common, but it's more likely to cause serious health problems.
There is no cure for Raynaud's disease, but there are ways to manage symptoms. For mild forms of Raynaud's disease, covering exposed skin before leaving the house can help. If an attack occurs, soaking the affected parts in warm, not hot, water can alleviate symptoms and prevent them from worsening.
Intermittent attacks of ischemia in the fingers, toes, ears, or nose, accompanied by pain, pallor, and prickling; phenomenon applies to secondary symptoms, disease when cause is unknown. Raynaud's disease is a rare disorder of the blood vessels, usually in the fingers and toes. People with this disorder have attacks that cause ...
Cold weather and stress can trigger attacks. Often the cause of raynaud's is not known. People in colder climates are more likely to develop raynaud's than people in warmer areas. Treatment for raynaud's may include drugs to keep the blood vessels open. There are also simple things you can do yourself, such as.
In medicine, Raynaud's disease or Raynaud's phenomenon (pronunciation: /reɪˈnoʊz/ ray-NOHZ) is excessively reduced blood flow in response to cold or emotional stress, causing discoloration of the fingers, toes, and occasionally other areas. This condition may also cause nails to become brittle with longitudinal ridges.
