Hi, I was wondering if anyone has an idea about the new potential symptom of COVID-19 that is being called "COVID toes". It's basically blood clots and allergy like redness around the toes nails.

I don't have any symptoms of the virus but this redness around the toes appeared around a week ago out of a sudden. What are the measures to be taken and is there a need to go to the hospital? If not what would be a good treatment for this symptom?

Thanks!

    your best bet would be to discuss this with your doctor. They would have the most update information on this and what the best treatment would be. The redness you are experiencing may not even be related to the virus. Take care

    I would not think this would be the only symptom or first symptom if you had the virus, but I suppose anything is possible!

    I hesitate to even speculate about what a treatment might be, I'm not sure anyone has a clear view of that. Ask the doctor, I guess, let them earn their living honestly, LOL.
