What Is the Treatment for Secondary Raynaud's Phenomenon?

Secondary Raynaud's phenomenon involves episodic peripheral vasospasm arising in the context of an underlying systemic condition. Identifying the appropriate first-line intervention requires careful consideration of the patient's clinical profile and the mechanism being targeted.

First-line management involves a topically applied agent selected for its systemic vasodilatory effects. The complete sequencing, patient selection criteria, and alternative options are detailed in the full structured protocol.
