Hello !
According to your description, it seems that you are having Raynaud’s phenomenon, which is a vascular condition. you have to see a doctor to confirm it. You need to keep your feet warm.
If you have any risk factors of developing diabetes, you better get yourself checked. Have a Fasting Blood Sugar level tested, and you will know if you are a diabetic or not.
Feel free to ask if you have any further query.
Regards,
