Frostbite?

Question

I feel in the snow the other day and my hand turned white (particularly in my middle finger). Now it is quite numb. Is this numbness permanet? or will the tissue eventaully heal? . I dont believe there to be nerve damage because i can still feel heavy pressures and temperature changes, but i am just curiuos.


thanks

I think it will be fine. Frostbite is just like a burn from a flame or fire. If it were frostbite it would of blistered right away and would of been extremly painful. I would keep a eye on it over the next few days, and if it gets worst, I would see a doctor.
