I think this post belongs here... not sure. Anyways, I find the skin on my hands and the wrist have a "dappled" look. Some parts are purple, and some are pale. This occurs on my legs too, up to the groin. Also, my hands and feet are really cold. Even if I'm indoors, their freezing. And, sometimes my knuckles turns purple, and old scars i have on my hands turn purple too.

What is this?
