There are four degrees of frostbite.

*1st Degree - only the surface of the skin is affected. You may have itching around the area, patches, and experience numbness. Called 'frostnip', long term you shouldn't have a problem.

*2nd Degree - will end up hardening the top layers of skin, but leaving the deeper layers unaffected. You will probably experience blisters a few days after receiving the 2nd Degree freeze. Even though the blisters could turn hard and black, usually, they look worse than they really are and often heal within a month.

*3rd / 4th Degree - deeper layers of your skin become involved, all the way down to muscles, blood vessels and nerves. The skin will become waxy-like, you will lose use of the area, possibly forever. The blisters that form will be purple in color that turn black and usually filled with blood. Extremely frostbitten areas can result in amputation if gangrene sets in.

The process to manage the damage of extreme frostbite could take months and years of assessment and treatments.
