Chilblains aren’t always red – they can also cause the extremities affected to become white or purple and the swelling can vary from slight to significant. The blood vessels that supply your skin, first constrict and then as they refill, they can leak fluid under the skin – resulting in the toes/fingers/tips of ears becoming itchy, red & swollen, often with burning sensation and being very tender to the touch.Most people never see the doctor for chilblains, as they tend to go on their own if you don't scratch or apply direct heat to them. If your chilblain seems infected (warm, red and sore), then you should get it looked at. Chilblains can be due to conditions such as Raynaud's syndrome, which causes the circulation to the fingers and toes to be interrupted, often by the cold.

Chilblains are a common skin condition that occurs due to exposure to cold temperatures. They typically affect the toes, fingers, nose, and ears. People with poor circulation or who spend long periods of time in the cold are more likely to develop chilblains. Exercise aids in the improvement of blood circulation and elevation of body temperature. You can help normalize blood flow by doing some simple exercises. If you're up for it, try some cardiovascular exercises because they have the most beneficial effects. Chilblains are caused by the skin's abnormal reaction to cold. They develop when the tiny blood vessels under the skin constrict under cold conditions reducing the flow of blood until the area warms up again and causes some leakage of fluid into the surrounding tissue. Not everyone develops them - it depends to a large extent on the efficiency of your circulation. People with poor circulation and other health problems involving their blood vessels are likely to be more prone to developing chilblains. In addition, damp or draughty conditions, dietary factors and hormonal imbalance can also be contributory factors. It is thought that rapid temperature changes from cold to hot can also be a cause: if the skin is chilled and is then followed by too rapid warming next to a fire or through using a hot water bottle, chilblains may result. Who gets them? You may start by seeing your primary care provider. Or you may be referred to a doctor who specializes in skin conditions called a dermatologist or one who specializes in blood vessels called a cardiologist.
