My hands turned blue last night - they're back to normal but aching?!
Question: My hands turned blue last night - they're back to normal but aching?
Last night at a birthday party my hands turned blue.... they turned back to normal after about 2 hours and a physician i talked to on the phone said it may have been stress induced acrocyanosis.
Today they've been aching. And it's already 6pm and they still hurt - online I read that acrocyanosis doesn't cause pain.
Is this normal? now that they're not blue i think it would be stupid to see a doctor.... any doctors out there who have comments about it?

Answers:
It sounds like Raynaud's. Please see a doctor.
I'm a pharmacologist
My husband has the same problem with his balls when I deny him sex for a long period of time. But in your case it may be a blood circulation problem and I say go to a doctor right away as it can be a sign of something far worce.
