Raynaud phenomenon caused or exacerbated by occupation – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/1320584204

Raynaud phenomenon attributable to work. It is well recognised as a consequence of repeated, prolonged use of hand-held vibrating machinery. More commonly, exposure to cold at work may interfere with the ability of individuals with primary Raynaud disease (or with secondary Raynaud phenomenon from diseases such as systemic sclerosis) to continue in work where such exposure is unavoidable.
