A member asked:
Do i have chillblains if the inflamation on my finger is spreading?

It's cold out there.: Chillblains does not "spread" in the strictest sense. It does not spread to areas that have not been subjected to the environmental requisites required of chillblains, namely exposure to cold but not freezing of the tissue cold.

Infection: In inflammation is spreading, the chances are you are developing an infection and may need antibiotics. See your family doctor
