Chilblains
Chilblains are small itchy areas that occur as a result of the body’s reaction to cold temperatures. Initially the blood vessels in the skin can decrease in diameter. Then later, as the temperature increases, the blood vessels expand allowing blood flow to speed up with intense itching as a symptom.
