Raynaud's attacks usually affect the fingers and toes. Rarely, the attacks affect the nose, ears, nipples, or lips. During a Raynaud's attack, the arteries become very narrow for a brief period. As a result, little or no blood flows to affected body parts.
Raynaud's phenomenon is a vessel abnormality that causes the small arteries of the arms and legs to shut down, causing the fingers to turn white, then blue, and red. Read about symptoms, diagnosis, treatment, and causes.
