Red/Swollen Toes

by kate6983, Jan 30, 2009 07:43AM
For the past few years every winter my toes get really red and swell.  They swell to the point I can not bend them.  It's just the tip of my toes.  Sometimes they'll get a bluish hue to them.  This year it is really bad.  I can barely wear shoes and boots are out of the question.  I was looking onlin and found something called chilblains.  It sounded like what I have and the pictures look like my toes.  I made an appointment with my dermatologist but can't get in until next week.  Does any one have any suggestions on how to relieve the pain/itching?  I know it's important to keep my toes warm, but is there anything I can put on them to relieve the uncomfortableness?  Thanks!
