    I have this problem sometimes, too. You may have something called Ray Nodes Syndrome. It basically means that your extremities get poor circulation.

    There is a relatively effective, albeit strange, way to treat ray nodes if it is diagnosed. They can attach a biofeedback machine to your fingers which releases a tone. The warmer your fingers get, the higher and louder the tone becomes. (The machine works by detecting very small amounts of sweat on your fingers. The sweat is used to complete a simple electrical circuit, which makes the tone sound.) Without knowing exactly how, you can will yourself to make the tone increase in pitch and volume. It's a way of learning how to command your body to increase circulation to the fingers.

    • It's called Reynaud's Disease, not "ray nodes". Lol.
