Experiences with

Frostbite

I have a rash on my cheeks &nose & forehead, pain in my hands& fingers &toes feels like frostbite, my legs feel really heavy, pain in my stomach & chest pain, sensitive to sunlight & bright lights. I was diagnosed with M.E.

I am so cold most of the time and my skin feels like frostbite, in particular in the legs. I cant seem to warm up at all. Its a feeling of a congested clumpy, thick and very heavy symptoms. When i stand up from a lying down position the skin does not seem to move and gets stuck.

We gathered on a cold muddy playing field, wearing more layers than I'm used to for running - but I did manage to shed one layer once I warmed up 🏝️ ( kept the woolly hat on though, which only goes on if my ears are in danger of dropping off from frostbite🥶) It involved lots of silly games to stretch

Liquid nitrogen is so cold it induces frostbite. The dead tissue ultimately drops off. The healing tissue is white as chalk. Then she biopsied four places on my back. All the while she's reading me the riot act about using sunscreen.

Fast forward, and I didn't improve, I walked into hospital one evening, and in and instant I was admitted for four months, with multi organ failure, and frostbite of my peripheries. I was told I would die.

I get completely numb and bloodless toes on cold days and don’t want to get frostbite If it’s cold. am I doomed to have to join a gym and use a treadmill in the winter?

For many years my right foot has always had a numbness and 'frostbite-like' burn in the toes. I have had times with occasional foot pain walking and squatting down. Lately there is a much deeper foot pain when walking and other activity. If someone else has this type of pain, what helps best?

Being aware of frostbite and my exposed nose and cheeks, I pull my buff back over my face. Of course, by now, it is a frozen block of merino wool. I must've bumped my headphones somehow and my music was gone! Noooooo!

. ❄️ Keep yourself upright And don’t you get frostbite, You’re nearly home, so you don’t need to worry, Your slip was only slight. ❄️ And before I knew it I was finishing off my cool down stretches in the warmth and comfort of my hall. So pleased I managed my run and came back unscathed.

Think I may have developed frostbite in my fingers though, running gloves aren’t up to tackling frosty mornings!

My 2nd Frostbite League run with the club. A really nice course at Nene Park and a good turnout with more than 500 runners from 16 clubs today.

Frostbite Why did Santa have to go to the hospital? Because of his poor elf. And finally; I Got a Christmas card full of rice today. I think it was from my Uncle Ben. 🎅🎅 Laugh Out Loud – It’s Christmas 🎄🎄

Really enjoyed this 1st time out running with the Cambridge & Coleridge club. Great conditions and some nice trails through the woods in this 5 mile season opener. Pleased with the time too - tempo runs and interval training beginning to pay off😜

Looking forward to my 1st club fixture in the ‘frostbite league’ on Sunday 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️ http://www.frostbiteleague.org.uk/default.html

My symptoms went from numbing tingling, to burning almost frostbite feeling in my foot... most of this is better but then I had 3 weeks straight of nausea and headache, thinking I had a tumor ( went for brain mri and clear)... now nausea has turned to more of a burning feeling in my stomach when I eat

Yes, sometimes I might feel a little misunderstood - especially when I am in agony over the frostbite like symptoms I experience even in summer temperatures - but generally this is not the worst of my symptoms.

It hurt like hell (imagine frostbite) but I have to say it worked. I have quite extensive neuropathy in my toes and the front portion of my foot, but little or nothing in my hands. The nurses say the feet can recover over 12 to 18 months, and there is a small chance it won't recover.
