Painless Toe Discoloration. Is There Any Online Doctor To Help Me

Last fall, the 2nd and 3rd toes on my left foot turned red at the base. They were not swollen nor painful. By January, both toes were completely red from base to tip. Now it is April and the same toes on my right foot are now discolored red. No swelling, no pain, not hot nor cold to the touch. My shoes do not rub them. The nails are normal colored. They are just red compared to the rest of my foot. Should I be concerned?
