The symptoms of frostbite in children typically progress through several stages:
Frostnip: Early stage characterized by red and cold skin that may feel numb or tingly. The skin may turn pale or white. Superficial Frostbite: The skin appears white or pale and feels hard but the underlying tissues remain soft. Blisters may form. Deep Frostbite: A severe stage where the skin turns blue or black, indicating tissue death. This stage requires immediate medical attention.
