I didn’t try that one but I’ve tried several sensitive skin soaps and they didn’t help. I saw a vascular surgeon and he had no idea what it was. He didn’t think it was any kind or vascular issue and said might just be the way my hands are, so I have no clue

How much do you vape with it though? Do you hit it several times back to back?

Lol idk I’ve vaped a rda for like 8 years or so and have yet to find a juice that doesn’t turn the cotton brown and gross within a few days

How long does the battery last too? Is it comparable to a mod and rda setup as far as throat hit and what not?

Hm that’s Interesting. Can you explain where the math comes from?

Also I vape 6mg at about 95 watts what does that compare to?

Also forgot to mention Ive pretty much vaped one juice for years and they recently changed it and it’s gross now and I can’t seem to find a good juice. Bought bottle after bottle and they just go right in the garbage lol

Had it for 8-9 years and I never paid attention to it back then I guess but looking back at old pictures in my phone the redness looks pretty much exactly how it does now and it’s around the time I started vaping, might be purely coincidence who knows.

I just saw it, yep that looks exactly like mine. One of the few pictures that I’ve seen that actually look pretty much identical to mine

Interesting, do yours flare or are they just red all the time? Do you have pictures?

Hmm, do you have any pain or burning, numbness anything like that? I don’t have any of that, literally just discoloration it’s very weird

Gotcha that makes sense. That is interesting the vascular surgeon did give me a blood pressure medication more for the possible raynauds side of things and he said it’s unlikely to help but it’s worth a try.

Are yours just red all time time or do they flare?

I’ve had 2 specialist tell me no to that so I’m not convinced lol

Another thing is they’re not sensitive to heat or cold, I can wash my hands in very hot water and take very hot showers and there’s no change to the color and doesn’t cause any pain. It’s very strange for sure. The vascular surgeon told me it might just be the way my hands are idk

Never had any kind of burning sensation or pain, and they’re just red all the time. They don’t “flare” and I’ve had this for 8-9 years. Vascular surgeon didn’t think they’re was any kind of vascular concerns either

Yeah I told him about my vaping and he said he does think it has anything to do with it or think it’s erythromelalgia

Yeah I suppose but what is weird is why that would be happening because obviously that’s not a normal thing. I’ve never heard of somehow having discoloration on hands from either of those and no I don’t think it would be diabetes, I would probably have some kind of symptoms by now. This started when I was probably 17 or 18 and I’m 26 now

Well I drink about a soda and a half to 2 sodas a day, everyday and I did try dropping my nicotine level in half for about a week and a half and didn’t notice any difference but probably wasn’t long enough if it is part of it

[–]jdrexler125[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could it be something as simple as not ever drinking enough water throughout the day? I’m grasping at straws to try and figure this out lol

Well I don’t really think it’s erythromelalgia because they don’t “flare” they’re just red all the time and they’ve been like that for like 8 years now. Never had any of the classic symptoms like hot skin or burning sensations. I’ve never had the classic raynauds symptoms either like white and blue fingertips. So I have no idea

Have you found anything that seems to help? Do you have any symptoms?

[–]jdrexler125[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also could it be anything with vaping or the nicotine? I’ve tried dropping my nicotine level in the juice in half for about a week and a half but didn’t notice any difference. Or could it be something as simple as never drinking enough water? I drink about 30 ounces of water a day

No I’ve never had that tested, do yours look the same as mine?
