La maladie de Raynaud, un trouble de la circulation rendant les doigts blancs, puis violets, en raison du froid, toucherait 7 % de la population, en particulier des femmes jeunes et minces
Raynaud's disease is a circulatory condition causing fingers to turn white and violet in cold conditions, affecting 7% of the population, particularly young, thin women. It involves temporary artery narrowing, leading to these color changes. The condition can be more severe as Raynaud's syndrome, where blood vessels malfunction. While not life-threatening, it may cause complications like chilblains. The disease can resolve over time, especially with weight gain, but may persist lifelong.
