Frostnip?

I was snowboarding a few days ago and I am not sure if my hand has frostnip. The affected area is a bit red and coarse. It is not aching and I still have the sensation. If this is indeed frostnip, should I go see a doctor? And do I need to stop snowboarding for certain period of time?

Frostnip doesn't have lingering effects after it's warmed. You probably got mild frostbite. Could easily go see your family doc if it's bothering you and since it's not possible to fully evaluate the extent of your injuries via the internet lol. Best to avoid the cold til your skin is back to normal again.


Edit: did you really create an account to ask medical advice on a ski forum lol? Go see your fucking doctor man

Dude that doesn’t look normal, go see your doctor. If it doesn’t feel good, avoid snowboarding until it feels better. And buy warmer gloves

I hope doctors amputate both your hands and all 11 toes (genetic mutation from your parents being siblings) so you can't type on NS anymore

True, it's sad.
Someone came to a community of skiers to ask about (his, her) hand because many of us should know what's up.
Lots of new folks showing up, but when they get basted for a simple question etc. IDK how long they will hang out.
So many mean youngsters. IDK, but chances are they are abused kids, so I feel sorry for them.

First degree frostbite is no biggie, aloe can help with dryness, keep it warm and dont go skiing until the skin looks healthy. Dont rub it.

if you get blisters or the skin looks darker blue/black you need to see the doc, but it wouldnt hurt to go regardless
