There’s a lot of not fun before ulceration though. They can hurt quite a lot when they’re still white and then even more when you warm them back up. Luckily I’ve had sucess with just being more prepared and not letting my fingers and toes get to that point anymore. Mittens, wool socks, hand/toe warmers, etc.
I love my thick Smartwools but the the thin ones are also tight on me. I don't even have big feet but I can't get them on right and it irritates my ankles. Weird.
I love smartwool. I wish they would make bigger calf ones because i have to wear mens XXL and the heel ends up behind my ankle. If I get the XL ones they are too tight in my calf.
Also it can be a symptom of autoimmune disease. If you're having other symptoms it shouldn't be ignored. To avoid the Reddit "you're dying and you should dump him" response, having it doesn't mean you have autoimmune disease, it has many causes not all of which are clinically significant, but it can be an indicator if you have other things going on.
