Suggest Treatment For Chronic Carpel Tunnel And Reynaud Syndrome

70 years old/female/hypertension on meds. Have history of carpel tunnel I right hand at night - wear a wrist guard at night. No problem during the day, until today. Cold day in STL/28f. Numbness in right middle finger just the tip. Noticed it was also blue. Rest of hand normal color, and slightly tingling. Hand was elevated at the time and things returned to normal once hand was down for about 10 minutes. My medical dictionary is about 50 years old - but I remember a condition - Reynaud (sp?) Syndrome??
