What should I do if my child gets scalded and blistered?

It is very common for children to be scalded in life, especially because children are naughty and run around. If they accidentally touch boiling water, it is still easy to scald their skin. If it is relatively mild, there may only be redness and swelling. At this time, just apply some ointment, but if blisters appear on the skin, you must hurry up and deal with it urgently. Don't let the skin be hurt or infected. So what should I do if a child is scalded and blistered?

If the area is not large and there is only local blistering, erythema, fever, swelling and pain, you can take the following methods: first rinse the wound with cold water, then use professional burn medicine to treat it. It is advisable to use exposure therapy, that is, no bandage is required after applying the medicine, and the wound is directly exposed to the air to heal. You can also use raw eggs and honey, or mix the two and apply them to the wound. If the burn is not severe, you can use a piece of tofu and one or two taels of white sugar, mix them and apply them to the affected area. It can relieve pain immediately. Change the tofu when it is dry. Change it three or four times in a row to see the effect.

Immediately apply cold therapy after a burn, that is, rinse with cold water, which can relieve pain symptoms and reduce the severity of the burn; secondly, avoid applying folk remedies on your own, such as toothpaste, soy sauce, sesame oil, etc. If the burned area is blistered or peeling, do not touch it and go to the surgeon immediately for treatment. Never apply oil. Things that are applied at home often cause suppuration, which is the main reason for leaving scars on the burned areas. Never pick at blisters caused by burns at home.

Guidance:

1. Rinse the wound with cold water first, then soak the wound in cold water for half an hour. The earlier the soaking time and the lower the water temperature, the better. However, if the wound has blistered or broken, do not soak it to prevent infection.

2. Gently apply light salt water to the wound to reduce inflammation.

3. Apply soy sauce, honey, lard, dog oil, or ginger juice on the wound to achieve the desired effect.

4. Use egg white, cooked honey or sesame oil, mix well and apply to the wound to reduce inflammation and relieve pain.

5. Cut a few slices of raw pear and apply them to the injured area. Has astringent and analgesic effects

Through the above introduction, everyone is clear about what to do when children are burned and blistered. It is still very important to protect children's skin from harm. After all, children are still young and cannot bear such heavy pain and blow. Therefore, we still have to take good care of children's daily life and try to avoid letting them get hurt.
