Hi Brittany,

How old are you?  I'm trying to rule out a potential circulatory issue here.

You can be allergic to cold.  It's called "cold urticaria."  Sometimes you are prescribed antihistamines.

See your regular doctor.

Brittany, this is Raynauds syndrome. any family doctor can help you. Don't ignore it. I am about to lose a toe a possibly a foot due to this condition.
