A member asked:
Are the purplish feet symptoms of poor blood circulation, in an otherwise healthy person?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sometimes: If they turn purple when you are standing up it could mean that your circulation is impaired. You could also have a vascular condition that causes constriction of the blood vessels. Have it checked by a vascular specialist.
