This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I have Raynaud's Syndrome. Occasionally, my fingers will lose all circulation. (lemmy.world)

What's the risk of them dying and falling off?

[–] Lemmeenym@lemm.ee 35 points 7 months ago

Unless it's a very severe case that's not likely, for most people it's just uncomfortable. Raynaud's does make you more vulnerable to frostbite though.

Exactly what Lemmenym said - they won’t fall off, it usually passes within 10-15 minutes.
