Snow can be used in some traditional methods to treat frostbite, but this is not a scientific and reliable approach. Frostbite is a serious medical condition that requires proper medical treatment. Applying snow directly to frostbitten areas can actually cause more damage as it can further lower the temperature and aggravate the injury. It is important to seek medical attention immediately if you suspect frostbite. A doctor can assess the severity and provide appropriate treatment such as warming the affected area gradually and using medications to prevent infection and promote healing.
