Frostbite happens when skin and tissue freeze 🥶, usually on fingertips, nose, cheeks, or feet. If you see white, frozen skin, don't rub it ❌. Instead, apply passive warming by covering the area with something warm. Rubbing causes more damage.

Rewarming takes 20 to 30 minutes and may hurt, but it's the safest approach. Prevention is key: dress warmly 🧥 and cover exposed skin. 🧤 Be a Willing Bystander who knows what to do! 💪
