8. What Procedures Are Used to Treat Raynaud’s?

Most people can control attacks and address symptoms without resorting to surgical intervention. When necessary, there are a few procedures that can help ease discomfort and restore normal function. These are primarily designed to restore blood flow to the affected area of the body.

This is achieved by blocking the nerves that control the arteries. They are then unable to spasm and constrict. This can provide relief, but it only lasts for a few years before the procedure will need to be repeated.
