It's a circulation problem resulting from arterial spasming. Symptoms incl cold/cyanosis(blue) fingers due to vien constriction brought on by emtional stress and/or cold.
Usually women between late teens and in their twenties,&smokers, prone to gangrene (deadening/infection in fingertips) and prone to Rheumatoid arthritis (swelling in joints in fingers). Suggest to your sister to keep her hands warm all the time(i.e. mittens/gloves/pockets)and to quit smoking if she is a smoker.
