What should I do if my baby has a cut on his chin?

Babies are young, naturally active, and without adequate control and balance of their bodies, it is easy for them to fall and even break their skin. Babies often have a low tolerance for pain. After a fall, people often cry uncontrollably. You can hold your baby in your arms and try to calm him/her down so he/she can cooperate with you in healing the wound. Let's see what to do if your baby's chin is broken?

The first step is to treat the wound as soon as possible after the baby falls and breaks the skin to prevent infection.

The second step is that since babies often fall directly to the ground, the wound on their face may be covered with a lot of dust and dirt. Therefore, use a cotton swab to gently remove any visible dust.

The third step is that if the baby has an open wound after falling, you can go to the pharmacy to buy saline solution to rinse the wound and the edges of the wound.

Step 4. After cleaning the wound, you can use hydrogen peroxide to disinfect the baby. It is not recommended to use alcohol here because alcohol is too irritating and the baby's skin is relatively fragile, so it may sting the baby.

The fifth step is that since the disinfection time of hydrogen peroxide is short, you also need to use a cotton swab to apply iodine to the wound to reduce the invasion and reproduction of bacteria.

Step 6. If too much medicine is applied, you need to use a cotton swab to absorb the moisture and keep the baby's broken skin dry. It should be noted that if the wound is very deep, you can choose to use a Band-Aid or gauze to wrap it.
