COVID Toes: COVID toes does occur in some people. It will usually resolve within a few weeks without treatment. It can occur in people with even quite mild illness. It is discoloration of toes and possibly fingers (pink, redish or bluish). I think that the importance of COVID toes is that it's presence would be a reason to get COVID tested.
