PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WLNE)- Anthony Wilds, a 15-year-old from Pawtucket, has created his own invention to alleviate his almost constant symptoms of Raynaud’s Disease.

Alongside the New England Medical Innovation Center, the sophomore at the Metropolitan Regional Career and Technical Center unveiled his product known as “HotBandz.” This product serves as a heated band wrapped around the forearm and promotes circulation in the extremities.

HotBandz is a startup creating a wearable warming device that will combat the painful and disabling blood circulation problem that comes along with Raynaud's Disease. HotBandz’s heated band wraps around the forearm and raises the temperature of the small arteries in the inner forearm. This promotes free circulation to return, all while having full use of the hands and fingers. HotBandz will give those with Raynaud’s Disease a convenient and cost-effective method of symptom management.
