How do salt and ice give you frost bite?

When salt is added to ice, it further lowers the temperature of the ice. When applied to skin, this mixture rapidly draws heat from the skin, causing the skin to freeze and potentially leading to frostbite. Salt also disrupts the freezing point of water, contributing to the formation of ice crystals that can damage skin cells.
