    Depends on if they test positive for COVID-19 or not !!!!!
    Never going to be able to tell from a picture.

    Yes agreed, but the photos were unfortunately taken a while ago so a test would now come back negative. Wondering if covid toes can look exactly like this? If so, then it is a definite possibility or do they generally look a bit different? Thanks & sounds as if it's 9impossible to tell them apart using photos.

    They look like chilblains. No way of knowing if they were COVID related unless there was a COVID test at the time.

    Very difficult to tell from a photo alone. Patient history would be more informative, cold climate? covid hot spot? vascular disease?
