Hello, I have an off the wall question, well concern.. in need of advice.


My right index finger is solid white, swollen and No feeling in it all. At first it just felt asleep... but now is very painful and ice cold to the touch? Its worring me because its been this way over 45 mins! Any ideas of what it could be or should I be alarmed!! I'm extremely worried that it may be a blood clot? Please advise

I am a fairly new nurse, i am just throwing this out there, Raynauds?  Sounds like a vascular issue, but i could be wrong.  Keep us informed. Dallenlpn

Terri  Hiya, I don't usually diagnose, so I would advise you to see a Dr... I don't think it is an emergency, but I would definately make an appointment if it continues or gets worse in the next few days.. Best of luck and please keep us posted... Teresa
