ABSTRACT

A 53-year-old female who carries the factor V Leiden mutation developed intermittent blue nodules on the palmar digits of her hands for a 3-week duration, coincident with COVID-19 infection. She has a strong family history of venous thromboembolism but no personal history in this regard. There was no strenuous or heavy manual labor prior to the onset of the nodules.
