A blue coloration of the extremities, i.e. the fingers, toes, ears and nose, which is due to poor circulation.<\/p>\n
Abnormal condition characterized by bluish discoloration and the hands, caused by spasm of the blood vessels brought about by exposure to cold, emotional stress, or other factors; also called Raynaud\u2019s sign.<\/p>\n
Bluish-purple discoloration of the hands and feet due to slow circulation of the blood through the small vessels in the skin.<\/p>\n
A condition, occurring especially in young women, in which there is persistent blueness of hands, feet, nose and ears as a result of slow circulation of blood through the small vessels of the skin.<\/p>\n
A blue or purple mottled discoloration of the extremities, especially the fingers, toes, and\/or nose. This physical finding is associated with many diseases and conditions, such as anorexia nervosa, autoimmune diseases, cold agglutinins, or Raynaud\u2019s disease or phenomenon. Cyanosis of the extremities may be commonly observed in newborns and in others after exposure to cold temperatures, and in those patients with reduced cardiac output. In patients with suspected hypoxemia, it is an unreliable sign of diminished oxygenation. (Instead of relying on this physical sign, pulse oximetry or arterial blood gases should be measured.)<\/p>\n
A mild condition of cyanosis, characterized by a subtle bluish tint in the hands and feet of a newborn, is considered within the normal range. This partial inability to adequately oxygenate the extremities stems from an underdeveloped circulatory system that is still undergoing changes and adjustments.<\/p>\n
Acrocyanosis is a circulatory disorder characterized by the discoloration of the hands and feet, turning them blue, accompanied by potential coldness and excessive sweating. This condition is primarily caused by the constriction of small blood vessels and is frequently exacerbated by cold weather conditions.<\/p>\n
Acrocyanosis shares a connection with Raynaud’s disease, a condition characterized by diminished blood flow that can result in skin damage, particularly in the fingers and toes.<\/p>\n
A condition characterized by impaired blood circulation in the extremities, like the hands and feet, resulting in a bluish discoloration and pain in the fingers and toes.<\/p>\n
