TAK and Itching swollen toes.

Hello everyone. I have TAK which is currently under control but I keep having swollen red severely itching toes. It happens out of the blue and drives me mad. I also been getting it in fingers, although not as much. I have seen GP and they have no idea what it is. I have had diabetes test and that is clear. A podiatrist I saw recently seemed to think it was caused by circulation problems. Can anyone help. Thank you.

No it does not happen just in cold weather. Has happened when very hot weather too.
