Recognizing and Treating Hypothermia and Frostbite Occupational Hazards
Signs of hypothermia can include constant shivering; confusion; sleepiness; irrational behavior; slurred speech; memory loss; slow and shallow breathing; slow or weakening pulse; and cold, pale, dry skin. In infants, hypothermia may cause signs and symptoms such as cold skin; limpness; refusal to feed; and unusual quietness.
Signs of frostbite might at first include skin having a 'pins and needles' feeling followed by the area turning pale or white and becoming numb. Severe frostbite symptoms include blistering and hardened skin that eventually turns black.------------------------------------------- posted 4:52 PM :: reference link ::
