What are the possible causes of bruises on children?

Compared with adults, children are more likely to get bruises on their bodies. This is because children like to play everywhere. Children are very curious and always want to explore things or places they don’t know about. However, children generally lack a sense of safety, so they often fall or get bumped, and then bruises appear on their bodies. Apart from this, what other possible reasons may cause bruises on children?

What are the possible causes of bruises on children?

What are the possible causes of bruises on children? After ten months of pregnancy, Xiao Meng finally gave birth to a lovely baby boy. The white and chubby baby made the whole family very happy. Holding this baby, Xiao Meng felt that this was the person she loved most in the world.

One day, when Xiao Meng was changing her baby's diaper, she found a blue mark on the baby's buttocks. What happened? Is it because the diaper the baby wears is not comfortable to wear? Or is it caused by incorrect sleeping posture? Xiao Meng asked her husband, and he said it was probably a birthmark, which every baby has. But Xiao Meng thinks that birthmarks should be moles or black spots. The blue mark on the baby's body looks more like it was caused by blood stasis!

The next day, a friend of Xiao Meng came to visit her. Since this friend was an obstetrician and gynecologist, Xiao Meng discussed the blue spots on the back of her baby's buttocks with her friend. But when she talked about this, the doctor friend laughed and told Xiao Meng not to worry at all.

A doctor friend said that this bruise-like mark is not a disease, but a residual physical characteristic of the human body, medically known as "Mongolian spots", which are congenital pigment spots caused by melanocytes staying in the dermis when migrating from the neural crest to the epidermis. It is almost always confined to the lumbar region and buttocks, and occasionally seen on the thigh or even the shoulder. It appears around April months and will slowly disappear when the baby is 5 or 6 years old. It has no effect on the baby's health and does not require any treatment or treatment.

The friend’s explanation was very professional, but Xiao Meng only understood one sentence, which is that the so-called blue marks are nothing more than pigmentation spots and there is no need to worry or treat them. The doctor friend looked at Xiao Meng's confused expression, smiled and said to her, "There is actually another theory about the origin of this blue mark. Do you want to hear it?"

The friend's mysterious attitude aroused Xiao Meng's curiosity, and she asked her friend to tell her the story quickly.

So my friend told me: It is said that every baby was once a little angel, and they played happily with God all day long. God loves them and controls them, holding their tails in his own hands. But when the little angel found his mother on earth, he decided to come to his mother no matter what. God couldn't bear to part with these lovely little angels, so he grabbed their tails and wouldn't let go. But in order to be able to accompany its mother, the little guy desperately broke off its tail and came to the world enduring the pain. Those bruises are the marks left when they broke their tails.

This legend made Xiao Meng burst into tears. Looking at the baby smiling at her on the bed, she felt that the world was so beautiful.

Yes, there will always be a little angel who comes to ask for things, to accompany you, to make you feel distressed and happy, and to help you understand the whole meaning of life. Dear mothers, please love your babies well, because they only have a few short years to rely on time.
