Subject: RE: BS: Cold index finger, diagnosis?
Another possible cause is "vibration white finger", circulatory damage caused by working with machinery like jackhammers. Not a lot you can do about it except sue the employer who made you work too long with dangerous equipment (the hazard has been known for decades, they don't have an excuse).
