One way to tell if your Raynaud’s condition is due to some vascular problem is to check for skin changes, nail changes, or ulcerations on your extremities that are not healing properly. Possible causes include hypothyroidism, heart issues, adrenal fatigue, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and even peripheral artery disease (PAD). This is particularly true if you have suddenly developed cold hands and feet. There are cases, however, when cold hands and feet are actually a sign of something more serious. Fingers or toes can turn white, blue, and purple. This can also lead to some quite striking color changes in the skin. This then stops blood from flowing to these areas, making them feel even colder. And although blood vessels are supposed to constrict from the cold, with this condition they almost completely close.

It's when the blood vessels in your extremities constrict a bit too much from cold exposure. Raynaud’s disease is a relatively harmless condition.

But sometimes, this can be due to a condition called Raynaud’s disease. It might have to do with your bodyweight or metabolism. Often this is just your body's way of regulating temperature. You might even have cold hands and feet during the warmer months of the year. You might have noticed that, although people around you are feeling warm, you are always a bit chilly. Some people are more sensitive to cold than others, and it’s usually nothing serious.
