Line 8:
The salt and ice challenge can quickly cause second- and third-degree injuries similar to frostbite or being burnt with the metal end of a [[lighter]], as well as causing painful [[Ulcer (dermatology)|open sores]] to form on the skin. Due to the numbing sensation of the cold and possible nerve damage during the stunt, participants are often unaware of the extent of any injuries sustained during the challenge, only feeling pain once the salt on their skin enters lesions created during the challenge. Skin discoloration from the challenge may remain after the challenge has been attempted.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504763_162-57465323-10391704/ice-and-salt-challenge-leaves-12-year-old-pittsburgh-boy-with-second-degree-burns/ |title="Ice and salt challenge" leaves 12-year-old Pittsburgh boy with second-degree burns - HealthPop |publisher=CBS News |date=2012-07-02 |access-date=2013-06-24 |archive-date=2012-07-03 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120703104247/http://www.cbsnews.com/8301-504763_162-57465323-10391704/ice-and-salt-challenge-leaves-12-year-old-pittsburgh-boy-with-second-degree-burns/ |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web |last=Kwak |first=Janet |url=http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/health/ice-and-salt-youtube-challenge-skittles-cinnamon-dare-burns-doctors-161177865.html |title=Ice-and-Salt Challenge Fires Up Health Officials <nowiki>|</nowiki> NBC Southern California |date=3 July 2012 |publisher=Nbclosangeles.com |access-date=2013-06-24 |archive-date=2013-11-09 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131109064322/http://www.nbclosangeles.com/news/health/ice-and-salt-youtube-challenge-skittles-cinnamon-dare-burns-doctors-161177865.html |url-status=live }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.post-gazette.com/stories/local/neighborhoods-city/boy-12-badly-injured-in-salt-and-ice-challenge-642561/ |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120701084654/http://www.post-gazette.com/stories/local/neighborhoods-city/boy-12-badly-injured-in-salt-and-ice-challenge-642561/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=July 1, 2012 |title=Boy, 12, badly injured in 'salt-and-ice' challenge - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette |publisher=Post-gazette.com |date=2012-06-29 |access-date=2013-06-24}} </ref>
