French term

acrorhigose

French to English Medical Medical (general) acrosyndromes
Hello,

This is from an article that desribes and compares the following, which are all included under the umbrella of "acrosyndromes":
- phénomène ou syndrome de Raynaud,
- L’acrorhigose,
- L’acrocyanose
- engelures

The sentence is :
**L’acrorhigose** correspond à des extrémités froides et pales en permanence lors du froid, en général peu ou non douloureux

The only idea I have come up with is cold hypersensitivity in the hands and feet.

Many thanks for your insights.
