Shenzhen dermatologist Xu Xiangqian has treated many scalded children, and found that after the child is burned, parents will often send them to the hospital immediately after they are burned. Such an action actually missed the best time for their children to treat!
So he reminded parents on his personal science popularization platform, children should not be sent to the hospital immediately after being scalded!
After scalding, you must follow these 5 words, and you must not miss any step
The first word: rush
This step is to take the child under the mobile faucet after scalding, and rinse with cold water for 15 to 30 minutes.
In the process of cooling water, cool water can cool down the skin of the child's scald , so that the child's burns can be avoided from further developing and becoming more serious.
When rinsing, please note:
① The water cannot be too large or too small
When the water is too large, if the child is scalded seriously, it may flush out the child's skin. If the water is too small, it will not be able to cool down well.
probably means that the water rinses off and does not have much pressure on the skin, but it can cool the skin.
②Only rush to the parts where the child is burned
We The only thing that needs to cool down is the parts where the child is burned. When , be careful not to rush to other places of the child, especially when the weather is cold in autumn and winter, so as to prevent the child from catching a cold.
The second word: Take off
If the child is covered by clothes when burned, take off the clothes in time.
If the scalding is not particularly serious, the skin and clothes can be separated in time, then take it off directly.
If the burned part is already sticky with the child's skin, you need to cut off the clothes next to it and peel them off slowly . It's really sticky, so don't forcefully pull the child's skin.
Be careful when taking off, do not cause blisters or cause secondary damage to the child's skin.
The third word: soak
Take off the child's clothes and put them in cold water for for 15 to 20 minutes to further cool down, soaking the child's burns and scalds can prevent the child from becoming more serious.
Of course, if the child's scald area is just a little red and not particularly serious, then there is no need to soak it. At this point, just apply some scald cream to the child directly.
The fourth word: Cover
If the child is seriously burned, the skin may have a wound. At this time, you should use clean gauze , or a clean towel at home to cover the child's wound to avoid bacteria in the air contamination of the wound and cause to be infected with again.
The fifth word: Send
Spend about an hour at home, and after doing the above four steps, the child will be sent to the hospital.
At this time, the temperature of the child's burned area has dropped. It can maximize to prevent the wound from deteriorating , and then send it to the hospital for treatment for the doctor.
If the child is burned or scalded, if it is not serious, rinse it with cold water at home and take off your clothes, and wipe it with scald cream at home.
However, if the burning soup is injured in serious areas, such as blisters or even the skin looks burnt, you must rinse, remove, soak, and cover at home before sending it to the hospital.
Don’t think that the child is so hot that he goes to the hospital immediately, because one hour after the child is burned by is the golden time for rescue . The most important action in this golden time for rescue is to cool down.
. Cooling is actually rinsed with cold water and soaked with cold water. You can do it at home. Don’t delay the hour of gold rescue because of rushing to go to the hospital. Instead, it will make the child’s injuries worse.
Once an accident occurs in a child, it will cause great harm to the child, and we must avoid such unexpected events.
For example, if you have children at home, you must put the hot water and hot soup to avoid being touched by the children.
Don’t buy some more dangerous heating items , such as unqualified hand warmers.
On November 27, 2022, CCTV's " Weekly Quality Report " revealed that unqualified hand warmers can easily cause explosions and even burns.
