Look for color : Changes and test capillary refill. This is done by pressing the toe and letting go and seeing how long it takes to refill. If it is a longer time then say the same digit on the opposite foot this may be indicative of vascular disease. The question then becomes is this new onset? If so, a vascular consult is warranted.

Depends: If there is a blue to purple color that does not change, then he needs to see a doctor immediately.
