What to do if your child is allergic to alcohol

Today, let’s learn about a question: What should we do if children are allergic to alcohol? I believe that most people don’t know and rarely encounter this situation because children rarely come into contact with alcohol. However, there are always exceptions. When encountering this situation, most parents are at a loss and very anxious. They don’t know what to do, which can easily lead to serious consequences. The following will lead everyone to carefully understand what to do when encountering this situation.

1. Drink more water to promote excretion

2. Alcohol rash is caused by skin allergy to alcohol. The best way is to rub the whole body with very concentrated salt water (half a basin of warm water plus two tablespoons of salt) for five minutes. Do not wash off the salt. Wipe dry and put on clothes to avoid being blown by the wind.

3. If you don’t want to, you can take anti-allergic drugs such as Astemizole, Periactin or Clarityne. It is best to take them according to the instructions and do not overdose.

4. You can also use: Licorice tablets to treat alcohol rash. Drinking too much during festival social gatherings may sometimes cause alcohol allergy and alcohol rash on the skin. If you cannot see a doctor at this time, you can go to the nearest Chinese medicine store and spend five yuan to buy a few slices of licorice tablets, put them in your mouth and chew them, and they will take effect in about an hour.

Note: Never take a hot bath, otherwise it will make the itching worse; also, don’t go out in the sun, as that will also make it itchy. If the problem is serious, try to avoid contact with alcohol, and taking medicines that clear heat and detoxify or warm the yang can relieve the symptoms.

The above are some ways to deal with children’s allergies to alcohol. Allergies are very common, some are mild and some are severe. In severe cases, they can even be fatal, so everyone should take it seriously. To treat allergies, all you need to do is stay away from allergens and alcohol to avoid recurrence of allergies. Therefore, parents must keep alcohol at home away from children's contact and keep an eye on their children.
