In my opinion you should not be taking chances with your feet.

Please get medical advice as soon as you can.

From the NHS website.
Seek treatment from your GP or podiatrist if blisters or injuries don't heal quickly. You should see your doctor urgently if: you notice breaks in the skin of your foot, or discharge seeping from the wound. the skin over part or all of the foot changes colour and becomes more red, blue, pale or dark.

Thanks. Just toes yellow and purple. Hopefully the bloods will know what’s going on
Sound like mine tbh. Iv got bad blood circulation. My feet are always cold and often look purple, same with my hands if I pop outside they go white. Possibly reynaurds but Iv never got round to getting it checked out

Aww really! I’m getting pain in them too. So thought was a bit worrying. My gp useless tho. Hopefully the bloods will know what’s happening
 
I had a few highs. With lockdown my routine has changed. So levels all over

I have been the same stuff with the lock down. Used to swim every day to manage mt blood sugars. A good friend kicked me in my tukas and got me walking. If you like you connect with me off line.

I agree with what others said keep your eyes on your feet !!!!!!!
