The three stages are usually called frostnip, superficial frostbite, and deep frostbite. In stage 1 (frostnip), the skin reddens and then turns white. The area may feel numb. In the second stage of frostbite(superficial), the external layer of skin is frozen, but underneath is still soft. The area may appear grayish-yellow. In the final stage of frostbite(deep frostbite) the entire area is solid, and may appear grayish-blue.
Why do you never rub someone that has just received frostbite?
If someone has frostbite, which means that their flesh is frozen, the expanded ice crystals inside the cells of the skin, muscle, blood vessels, etc will grate together and break down the cell walls if you rub it. Think about taking a frozen cut of meat, then rubbing a corner of it. The tissue would begin to break down, you would eventually end up with a pulpy mass. If you think you have frostbite, get medical attention to save the toe/limb/frozen area.
