🔍 Key Concepts

• Frostbite vs. general cold exposure – what happens to tissue and blood flow when something is frozen • Gentle vs. vigorous handling – what can further damage already injured tissue? • Proper warming technique – how quickly and by what method should frozen tissue be rewarmed?

💭 Think About

• If tissue is frozen and fragile, what might rubbing, massaging, or using ice/snow do to it physically? • Would you want circulation to return suddenly and aggressively, or in a controlled way? Why? • Think about whether the goal is tight pressure, movement, or steady warmth without additional trauma.

✅ Before You Answer

• Make sure the method does not involve rubbing or massaging frozen tissue. • Avoid any option that uses ice, snow, or tight wrapping on already frozen skin. • Look for the choice that focuses on careful rewarming without causing further mechanical damage.
