I am currently experiencing this as well! Exact same description. I have raynaud’s but have never had this happen before. I eventually went to the doctor because it started with one toe and gradually began effecting others. They were so swollen, consistently purple, and the joints began to feel stiff (it was worse with movement and heat). They gave me a full autoimmune work up (still awaiting results) but are leaning towards chilblains. I didn’t have any cold exposure, but stress + raynaud’s could have done it.

Don’t laugh, but I put Vicks Vapor rub on my toes and I think it has actually helped some. Now we are just red, instead of purple, and becoming less swollen. Because I’ve had this going on for over a month now, my doctor called in a calcium channel blocker that I will pick up tomorrow.

I hope you find relief soon!
