This condition aggravates with cold exposure. Exposure to cold abnormally reduces blood circulation causing the skin to become pale, waxy-white or purple. The disorder is sometimes called white finger, wax finger or dead finger.. Raynaud's phenomenon has many different causes including workplace exposures.
You could have a very mild case of Raynaud's phenomenon. This is where the blood vessels that bring blood to the tips of the fingers contract more than they are supposed to in response to cold weather. In its most severe form Raynaud's can cut off blood flow to the point where tissue in the fingers begins to die. You did not report any numbness or tingling in this area which suggests that the blood flow is still adequate. I don't think this is related to your arthritis.
