When I was a child my mother used to dip my chilblains in my urine.  I have developed chilblains this year after many a year and it still works!

    I've heard of that remedy as well and just how effective it is. Might give it a try but fingers crossed I don't get any this winter. Now taking Nifedipine and it appears to be working as I've usually got chilblains by now 😀
