What is Raynaud's syndrome?
Raynaud’s disease causes certain parts of the body, such as the fingers and toes, to feel numb and cold in response to low temperatures or pressure. Raynaud’s disease causes the smaller arteries that supply blood to the skin to narrow, limiting the amount of blood supplied to the affected area, a condition called vasospasm.
What causes Raynaud's disease?
Raynaud’s is most likely to be triggered by exposure to cold temperatures, such as putting your hands in cold water, taking something out of the refrigerator, or being in cold air. For some people, emotional stress can also trigger Raynaud’s.
Women are more likely to get Raynaud’s than men. People who live in colder climates seem to be more susceptible.
Raynaud's symptoms
When Raynaud’s disease strikes, the affected area of skin usually turns pale first, then often changes color and feels cold and numb. Once the skin warms up and blood circulation improves, the affected area may change color again and twitch, tingle, or swell.
Raynaud’s disease most often affects the fingers and toes. But it can also affect other areas of the body, such as the nose, lips, ears, and even nipples. It takes up to 15 minutes for blood flow to return to these affected areas once the body warms up.
Heated Gloves/Socks are the nemesis of Raynaud's disease
The most common triggers of Raynaud’s disease are cold and stimulation. The most common sites of disease are fingers and toes.
The heating part of our heated gloves can cover the five fingers, which can ensure that the fingers and palms are not stimulated by the cold. At the same time, wearing heated gloves can effectively isolate the fingers from the stimulation of external contact, which is a double guarantee for reducing the causes of disease.
Our heated socks heat the entire sole of the foot, which can promote blood circulation in the sole of the foot and keep the sole of the foot warm. There is an old Chinese saying that cold feet can cause all kinds of diseases. For most patients, full-sole heated socks have a very good health care effect.
For Raynaud’s patients, we also have a forefoot + instep heating socks, which is mainly to relieve the pain caused by the white and stiff cold of the entire toes of Raynaud’s patients when the toes are affected, and accelerate the warming and blood circulation of the toes.
Summary and Outlook
Wearing heated gloves or socks can perfectly prevent the causes of Raynaud’s disease. In a cold environment, the continuous warmth of heated wear can increase the body’s blood circulation, and it is also an effective way to avoid symptoms. Even after the symptoms appear, heated gloves or socks can quickly relieve the pain and discomfort caused by the symptoms.
Finally, we will also pay close attention to the patients who use our heated wear, and we also hope that customers can give us feedback in time to help us optimize our products in the future. Provide more suitable heated wear for all patients. At the same time, I also hope that you will be healthy and live a good life. I will be with you all the way.
