Is it possible to get rid of chilblains quickly?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Chilbrains: Chilblains are ulcers affecting the extremities that occur when a predisposed individual is exposed to cold and humidity. The cold exposure damages capillary beds in the skin, which in turn can cause redness, itching, blisters, and inflammation. The best treatment is prevention by keeping the feet warm. Once you have the ulcers there is no quick fix. You have to allow time for the body to heal.
