Cold Stress – Core body temperature drops below 95.0°F. Move to heat source and seek
medical attention.
Hypothermia - occurs when the body temperature drops from 98.6°F to 95°F or lower.
Typically, it is only a concern if you have been in cold water or outdoors without proper
protection for an extended period of time.
Symptoms: Shaking or shivering, Weakness or lethargy, Numbness or incoherence, Low pulse rate
Frostbite - occurs when soft tissue, usually in the fingers or toes, freezes. While severe cases
can result in amputation, most cause no permanent damage if the skin is warmed up carefully.
Symptoms: Blisters, Numbness, Blackness, Tingling, throbbing, redness and/or swelling of affected
area upon re-warming.
