A severe nationwide freeze is driving a surge in serious frostbite cases as dangerous wind chills grip large parts of the country. Frostbite is a progressive injury that damages tissue and can lead to permanent loss or amputation if not treated quickly. In extreme cold, exposed skin can be injured in minutes. Rapid rewarming in warm water is critical, while prevention—layered clothing, covering exposed skin, and limiting time outdoors—remains the best defense.
