Need to know

Hello I have had toes that turn red and dark purple for years. My fingers also turn red. Worse in the heat and cold. Also my toes are really sensitive. If I bump 1 not stub it really really hurts and swells. Does that sound like pa disease?? Or something else. I've told my doctor a few times he just kinda blows me off.

Thanks in advance

I posted this same question in pa disease but the forum doesn't look active anymore.

If you do the Google search, you can compare your own symptoms with what you read.

Even if they are red most of the time?? I thought they had to change colors a lot.

Google 'Raynaud's Phenomenon or even just 'Raynaud's.''  Your symptoms sound pretty classic to me.

If that's what it is, it's not usually dangerous, but it's painful, and it's better to treat it to keep it from getting worse.
