Blueness of the extremities (the hands and feet). Acrocyanosis
is typically symmetrical. It is marked by a mottled blue or red discoloration of
the skin of the fingers and wrists and the toes and ankles and by profuse sweating
and coldness of the fingers and toes.
Acrocyanosis is caused by narrowing (constriction) of small arterioles (tiny
arteries) toward the end of the arms and legs.
