RE: Frost Bite never goes away?



YUP.... I have narrly looking toes. Look like someone took a hammer to them.
Two toe nails get all twisted and need to be cut deeply and shaved down.
In fact they have an ointment that kills fungus because you still can get
trapped dead skin and stuff.  My doctor says there is a new medication that seems to help.
 
I wash and treat my feet thoroughly once a week. Scrubbing everyday.
Even my feet are breaking out with vericose veins.
If I sit for any length of time my feet swell.  If I walk they are ok.
 
Actually this new ointment has helped a lot.
My toes look better.  Not fixed just better. 
At least they do not break out in sores anymore.

The permanent symptoms of frostbite are: numbness of the toes, feet, and legs (same as the hands), discoloration and thickness of the toe nails-often misdiagnosed as a fungus.
