Winter is a season of ice skating, skiing, snow man, avalanche, and frostbites. Frostbite is the most common problem that occurs every time snow flakes start flooding the streets. A frostbite, according to sportsmedicine.com, is a damage to the tissues caused by exposure to temperature below 32 degrees Fahrenheit. You'll feel that your body is being pricked by thousands of needles and pins. After that, the skin appears numb, white, cold, and hard, and finally becomes red and swollen.
