This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Only one hand or including the hand without the ring?

It happens to both hands sometimes, sometimes to just one.

What happens when you drink alcohol? I think alcohol thins the blood, right? So, does it happen less?

I stopped drinking a while ago, so I can't answer that accurately. but check out what I found:

An extensive body of data shows concordant J-shaped associations between alcohol intake and a variety of adverse health outcomes, including coronary heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, congestive heart failure, stroke, dementia, Raynaud’s phenomenon, and all-cause mortality. Light to moderate alcohol consumption (up to 1 drink daily for women and 1 or 2 drinks daily for men) is associated with cardioprotective benefits, whereas increasingly excessive consumption results in proportional worsening of outcomes.

So it sounds like 1 daily drink for me might improve the condition but more alcohol will worsen it.
