I got frostbite on a finger and i'm worried about whether my finger will fall off.
It happened 6 days ago, and on the top of my finger (by my knuckle) the skin feels burned and is dark red, and a blister formed. That seems normal I guess.
What i'm worried about is my finger tip, which got more frozen than the top of the finger. The skin surrounding my fingertip is hard and I can't feel anything on the surface of it. It looks pretty normal - never got dark/burned red. But everything is totally numb, although I can feel pressure applied to it.
Is there anything I can do to treat this, and how serious is it?
Thanks! Jim
