Thermal burns are by far the most frequent and account for approx. 90% of all burns, while frostbites, chemical and electrical burns (CB) cover the remaining approx. 10%. This review gives an overview of the treatment of corrosions and frostbites. CB and frostbites are relatively rare and prompt initiation of proper treatment is essential for both. CB should be diluted as soon as possible, preferably with a neutralizing solution. Treatment of systemic hypothermia comes before management of peripheral frostbite. Frostbites involve thawing in warm water, followed by vasodilation, thrombolysis and amputation if indicated.
