10 Ways to Heal a Frost Bite
6. Do not rub the area in order to keep it warm
The common thing that we often do to warm up the body is rubbing. But in case of frostbite, it will have the opposite effect and will cause more harm than good. So avoid it.
7. Avoid heaters/heating pads/fireplaces
This is because the heat provided by these sources is uneven and random. You need a constant source of warmth. So avoid using these things.
8. Do not try to move the affected area too much
This may cause further damage, so always remember to keep the affected area still and stationary.
9. Use sterile dry dressing
Use dressing while keeping the affected area still.
10. Get medical help as soon as possible
Even moments matter when it is a case of severe frostbite. Delay can cause lifelong problems and even amputations in severe cases. So as soon as you can, get professional help.
Frostbite can be very serious, do not take it lightly.
