Frostbitten areas should be immersed in warm water (not hot) with a temperature of around 104-107°F. This will gradually warm up the affected tissues without causing further damage. Applying heat directly or rubbing/massaging the area can cause further tissue damage. The area should also be covered to protect it from rubbing and further exposure to cold.
