Symptoms of frostbite
If you’re exposed to cold weather and notice redness or pain on any area of your skin, you should get out of the cold to protect yourself.
There is a chance that someone with frostbite may not notice they have it until someone else points it out, that is because the area may be numb.
Any of the following signs can indicate frostbite: A white or grayish-yellow skin area, skin that feels unusually firm or waxy, and numbness.
