Hi,

My fingers and toes sometimes turn blue, but usually it's during cold weather, or if I get my finger, toes, ears, etc too cold. I have Raynaud's diease and that is one of the symtoms for it. Could that be causing it?

Take care and hope you find more answers.

Yep, Raynauds, here, in fingertips & toes. Typically, the "tell-tale" color change pattern with Raynauds is white-to-blue-to-red. (At present, mine has been aggravated by my knee injury & subsequent surgery!!)

Just FYI, if interested:
