What are the main first aid knowledge for middle school students?

Accidents happen all the time in our lives. Minor problems have no impact on the body, but sudden problems or accidents will hurt everyone. Many people do not pay attention to accidents in life. In everyone's opinion, as long as we pay attention to safety, there will be no accidents. However, accidents are everywhere. Many people will face injuries caused by accidents, especially middle school students. If there is an accident, they must understand the common sense of first aid. So what are the main common sense of first aid for middle school students?

Different accidents require different first aid methods, such as:

Hiccups

Inhaling cold air or due to other factors may cause hiccups.

(1) Try to hold your breath as much as possible. This can sometimes stop hiccups.

(2) Let the person who is hiccuping drink a small amount of water, especially to swallow it while hiccuping.

(3) When a baby hiccups, you can pick the baby up and gently tickle the baby's mouth or ears with your fingertips until the baby laughs, and the hiccups will stop.

(4) If hiccups are difficult to stop and there is no particular discomfort, you can just let it go and it will usually stop after a while. If you have hiccups for a long time, consult a doctor. If middle-aged or elderly people or sick people suddenly and continuously hiccup, it may indicate an illness or a worsening of the condition and requires attention.

Stepping on nails

If a nail pierces your foot, you must first remove the nail completely and immediately, and then perform the following emergency treatment.

(1) After removing the nail, some blood should be squeezed out because nails often penetrate deep and are prone to infection.

(2) Remove dirt, rust, etc. from the wound, bandage it with gauze, and then go to the hospital for further diagnosis and treatment.

(3) If you step on a thin iron nail or needle and it is broken, do not discard it. Instead, take the nail or needle together to the hospital for the doctor to use as a reference to determine the depth of the wound.

(4) If a nail pierces your body, especially one that is rusty or covered in dirt, you are most likely to get tetanus and should go to the hospital immediately to get a tetanus toxin injection.

Heel wear

Walking long distances or wearing ill-fitting shoes or shoes with uneven soles can easily cause heel abrasions.

[Family emergency treatment]

(1) If the heels are red, you can rub a layer of soap on the outside of the socks and put a piece of tape on the part where the shoes touch the heels to prevent further friction and ulceration of the heels.

(2) When the heel is rubbed and blisters appear, do not break the blisters. Instead, wrap them with sterile gauze and let them absorb on their own. Large blisters can be wiped once with iodine and twice with sterile alcohol. Then, puncture the blister with a needle tip that has been sterilized by fire and wrap it with sterile gauze. Keep it clean to prevent infection.
