You can treat Chilblains by soaking the Chilblains in some apple cider vinegar along with some water for 20 to 30 minutes at a time.

Also applying Witch Hazel or calamine lotion to the Chilblains can also help ease and soothe the Chilblain itching.

The Chilblains will eventually go away on their own within 2 to 3 weeks whether you treat them or not.

Most cases of Chilblains heal up on their own within 2 to 3 weeks and they usually require no medical treatment.

The Chilblains usually go away on their own within 3 weeks at most but sometimes they may last as long as 4 weeks.

Some things that can help the Chilblains go away and help soothe the Chilblains is to apply some lotions to them such as calamine lotion or witch hazel, to relieve itching.

Soaking the Chilblains in some apple cider vinegar can also help ease the itching and help them go away sooner as well.

To prevent Chilblains make sure to try and keep your fingers and toes as warm as possible and apply some lotion or foot powder to your feet.

Avoid exposing your fingers and feet or toes to the cold as much as possible.
