frostbite means that a part of the body has frozen to the point where blood is no longer flowing, and thus damage has happened to that area (lack of blood is bad). There is only one 'type' of frostbite, and you can get it anywhere, but you can have a mild case, or an extreme case, or anywhere in between. In extreme cases the item usually has to be amputated or gangrene can set in.
