Chilblains usually clear up after one to three weeks. In the meantime, you can take steps to ease your symptoms, including:

■Keeping your affected skin warm, but away from sources of heat
■Using lotions to alleviate itching and swelling
■Making sure the affected skin is cleaned with an antiseptic to prevent infection
■Avoiding scratching
