Raynaud's Disease
Raynaud's Disease ( 33 Questions)
Elevated blood pressure readings are not directly related to Raynaud's disease. While the condition can affect blood flow to the extremities, it does not cause consistently elevated blood pressure.
Hyperactive reflexes in the extremities are not typically associated with Raynaud's disease. These reflexes may be indicative of other neurological issues.
Skin thickening and tightening on the fingers are characteristic features of systemic sclerosis, which is a condition often associated with secondary Raynaud's disease. The combination of Raynaud's symptoms with skin changes may raise suspicion for an underlying autoimmune disorder.
Abnormal blood clotting tests are not specific to Raynaud's disease. Raynaud's primarily involves vasospasm and decreased blood flow, rather than abnormal clotting.
