My toes were frostbitten...?


now my pinky toe is red, swollen and extremely painful. its itchy yet it hurts. is there anything i can do to minimize pain while it heals? is it able to heal?

You need to go to the doctor, they can give you a topical cream for the pain and itchiness, get to the dr so they can help you prevent further damage or infection

Nope, you have to go to the docters and get it cut off.

I would call your nearest hospital and ask them if you need to go to the emergency room...especially if you start to lose feeling...ouch....I would hate to have you lose your toe !!!!!!

Come to nearest ER.

how is it happen, Can you describe with additional details.

It can make us more careful and prevent it happen?

You can safe many human who reads your story,
thanks.
