What Causes Paleness Of Skin On The Fingers And Toes?

2 of my daughters occasionally lose color in their fingers and toes, one of them will lose color in the entirety of her legs. Their grandmother had a heart condition, so I had the older daughter tested, but the doctor thought her heart was ok. Any ideas? Reynaud Syndrome from your symptom checker looked pretty similar.

your description is quite symptomatic for reynauds. you should take them to capillaroscopy, which is usually performed by dermatologist. you should also consult a rheumatologist since it is an overlapping syndrome.....
