Toes have frozen roots that swell every winter. When they get hot, they itch. What should I do?

Frostbite is a very common skin disease in winter. It is precisely because of the cold weather in winter that the exposed skin is stimulated by freezing. As time goes on, the subcutaneous arterioles spasm and contract. Produce blood stasis, local tissue hypoxia, tissue cell damage.

At first, the lesions were localized broad beans or purplish red lumps or indurations with bright red edges and blue centers. Symmetry is more common at the ends, especially at the extended side of the back of the hand and fingers, at the edge of the foot and at the extended side of the toes, at the lower limbs, cheeks and auricles. Consciously local pain, itching, even worse after heat, pain after ulceration.

Suffering from wind and cold, chilblain skin appears pale, red and swollen, purple spots, burning pain and itching, numbness, blisters and ulceration. These symptoms can last for 65,438+0-2 months, until the weather gets warmer, and some patients will recur in the same place next winter. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that chilblain is caused by insufficient cold protection of exposed parts, invasion of cold pathogens and poor circulation of qi and blood.
