My raynauds looks awful, in my opinion, the distal end of my second digit on one hand is always purple. my hands and digits will be purple with bright red scattered throughout. though i do not experience gangrene, is this normal?

Rarely, the color change is persistent but it is present in some patients. Do you have isolated Raynaud's phenomenon or you have lupus or other collagen disease?
