Raynaud’s disease (also known as Raynaud's phenomenon) is a vascular condition where small blood vessels in the extremities constrict suddenly (vasospasm) in response to cold temperatures or stress. This can cause the toes to suddenly feel icy, numb or painful, and possibly even turn blue or white. As the spasms subside, a pins and needles sensation may be present and the affected area may turn red. Certain diseases, injuries or conditions may increase a person’s risk of developing Raynaud’s disease. Multiwave Locked System (MLS) laser therapy is a possible treatment option for some patients suffering from Raynaud’s disease. MLS laser therapy is an FDA cleared, non-invasive treatment modality that utilizes a combination of specific wavelengths to help repair damaged cells and accelerate the body’s natural healing mechanism. Many believe that MLS laser therapy can help reduce the frequency and severity of attacks of Raynaud’s disease. If you suffer from Raynaud’s disease, consult with a podiatrist to learn more and to discuss if you may be a good candidate for MLS laser therapy.
MLS Laser Therapy is a successful alternative for treating any pain you may be experiencing related to certain podiatric conditions.
