Yellowish White Discoloration On Fingers, Turning Black, Occurs Due To Cold Weather. Which Specialist Should I See?

Hi Dr. xxxx. I m having a problem with my fingers whenever I go outside into cold weather or touch something thats even slightly cold. They all start to turn a yellowish white color. When I warm them up they start to turn a purplish, blackish color. What kind of doctor would I go to see for this? Also, how serious of a condition could this be?

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi and welcome to Healthcare magic.Thank you for the query.
it sounds like raynaoud syndrome and it can be disease for itself or it can be part of some autoimmune disorder so you need to see rheumatologist or urologist and check your blood flow in this area and do specific vascular and neurologic tests.
Wish you good health. Regards
