7. End-of-Life Symptom
Livedo reticularis commonly develops in people who are in their end-of-life stage. As a person approaches the end of their life, their body begins to slow circulation. This first presents as mottling in the hands and feet that spreads to the rest of their body. The skin may become paler and feel cold to the touch. Factors like underlying conditions or the presence of a catheter may make the mottling more prominent.
