As noted on the proposed merge page, the Chillblains article misspells it, and they contradict each other (dry cold, cold in damp climates - I need someone to clarify).
In addition to merging, I would like to clean up the syntax. As I understand it, you use chilblain to refer to a particular sore, and chilblains as the condition wherein you have one or more of the chilblain sores. I will make this change unless challenged. Keyesc
Chilblains and trench foot are not the same thing at all and I have removed the reference.
It could be mentioned that chilblains can be associated with connective tissue disorders.
The only thing I know by that name is ketamine. Like, the horse tranq. Since I can't see how that would help, is there another vitamin K or is this just wrong? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sevenlies ( talk • contribs) 00:09, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
NOT an element, not witch magic, not magic in general. Only a well documented vitamin that one would bleed to death without. Wzrd1 ( talk) 05:44, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
The reference to Pippi Longstocking should at least be explained. There is a Wilipedia article on Pippi Longstocking. I would make the link if I knew how. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.173.9.243 ( talk) 09:39, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
The wiki article on Francois de Laval mentions that he died from chilblains on his heel. How would someone die from it? Was it common? What about today? -- Richardson mcphillips ( talk) 18:55, 30 April 2012 (UTC)
The URL for the article referenced in this section is correct, but when I followed it, it added "%7D" to the end got an 404 error as a result. I realize that the proper location for this is in the Reference section. I'm just mentioning this to help out whoever decides to undertake fixing up this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ggurman ( talk • contribs) 04:02, 27 April 2013 (UTC)

Should one keep the affected area dry or soak 3–4 times a day? This article recommends both but they appear contradictory. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.150.35.105 ( talk) 08:52, 13 May 2016 (UTC)
Trimmed [2] some COVID-related content that is not compliant with WP:MEDRS:
The occurrence of such lesions has been attributed to the similar interferon-1 mediated immune response in both COVID-19 and systemic lupus erythematosus, another possible explanation is based on a common genetic background. [1] In a recent genome-wide association study, the 3p21.31 region was found to be associated with COVID-19 severity. [2] This region also contains the TREX1 gene. Missense mutations of the TREX1 gene are responsible for familial chilblain lupus and its genetic polymorphisms have been implicated in the pathogenesis of systemic lupus erythematosus. The TREX1 mutation significantly reduces its exonucleolytic activity which results in the accumulation of nucleic acids that can stimulate type-I interferon responses and trigger autoimmunity. Thus an alteration in TREX1 activity, perhaps due to a promoter/enhancer modulation, may be responsible for the coincidence of both viral infection and an autoimmune phenomenon such as chilblain. [3]
...
According to Dr. Liji Thomas, MD studies: "None of the patients were positive for the virus on SARS-CoV-2 on RT-PCR of the nasopharyngeal swabs, or in the skin samples. Neither were the antibody tests positive for either IgM or IgG." [4]
