Cold burns can occur when skin is exposed to something that is extremely cold such as snow or ice. Cold burn is most common in the toes and fingers. Someone who steps on a cold surface may experience a cold burn.
The effect of skin cooling on the heart rate and blood pressure response varies with the area of the body which is cooled, and whether the cold is severe enough to cause pain. For example, when the hands are immersed in cold water, HR, systolic blood pressure (SBP) and diastolic blood pressure (DBP) all increase.
