Noticed last night that the top of my finger has changed and is purple, not sure if it’s Raynaud’s disease does anyone else have this problem?

Would ask your gp I have secondary raynauds they go various colours but don't stay purple

If it is staying purple please seek immediate medical care. It may be OK but get it checked for loss of circulation.

Thankyou for your replies it does vary in colour during the day and is worse when my fingers are cold, I will speak to my surgery for a review by doctor, it’s just strange it’s one finger tip 😊

I had it in just one finger tip, but it only ever went white.
