How rare is it for a baby to have raynauds disease?

Raynauds syndrome usually occurs from about the age of 15. However I am sure there are some exceptions as i got it when i was 13. Raynauds is a heriditary incurable disease. there are two types: primary and secondary. primary is when you just have raynauds on its own. secondary, however can be a little more serious as it is caused by an underlying disease. i would recommend taking your baby to see a doctor as i would suspect it has secondary raynauds if it has raynauds at all.

If you have raynauds syndrome and a workers comp elbow injury should the raynauds also be covered if it was brought on by the elbow injury?

In the UK this depends totally on whether a medical expert can verify that the Reynauds syndrome was connected to the elbow injury - so long as injuries are verified to be caused by the negligence of an employer you can claim compensation for all the injuries caused. This is known as causation. To see an example of hoe to claim for Reynauds Syndrome in the UK please see the related link entitled "Reynauds Syndrome".
