Chillblains

Since having covid has anyone else suffered with chilblains?

I’ve never had them before, only as a child, in adulthood I never have.
Just wondering if there’s a connection.

Yes - except it's not chilblains, it's covid toes. Look it up, it's a thing. My GP recently diagnosed me with it.

Like pp above, the GP mentioned covid toe when one of our kids had red itchy patches that flared up on feet. Said could look like chilblains. No issue and will go but takes ages - weeks/months, treat with painkillers if sore and antihistamines if itchy. I believe all viruses can lead to this type of post viral reaction in some individuals. I would send photos to your GP to be sure as other conditions can look similar which might need different treatment.
