9Medical Procedures
In some serious cases of Raynaud’s disease, surgical procedures would be needed. Doctors would inject Botox or anesthetics into your feet or hands to block sympathetic nerves, which are responsible for controlling the narrowing and opening of blood vessels. If symptoms are persistent, you might need repeated injections. Another option is nerve surgery. It involves making some small incisions in your feet or hands to strip surrounding tiny nerves. If successful, the surgery can lower the duration and frequency of each attack. [9]
