How to get rid of the redness on a child's hand

Children's skin is very delicate, but some children are very naughty. Sometimes parents are so angry that they have to beat their children. Because children's skin is very delicate, a large area of ​​red will appear if they are hit hard. In fact, after a child's hand is beaten red, generally no special treatment is required. After a few hours, the redness will disappear by itself. However, parents need to pay attention to the methods when educating their children.

In life, it often happens that children get their hands scalded by boiling water because of their mischief. At this time, parents will feel heartbroken when they see their children crying. When a child's hands are scalded by boiling water, parents should take timely measures, such as soaking them with water, applying cold compresses with wet towels, disinfecting them, and applying ointment. Only by understanding the emergency treatment methods after burns can you relieve your child’s pain as quickly as possible and avoid serious consequences.

Method 1: Children’s skin is very delicate. If the burns are severe and not effectively treated, it can easily lead to infection. When a child is scalded, parents should put the child's hand under running cold water to rinse the scalded area. The soaking time depends on the severity of the scald, generally 20-30 minutes. After brewing, you can use a towel to apply cold compress, making sure the burned area is completely cooled and no blisters form. Be careful not to put your child's hands under ice water, as the skin should not be exposed to sudden cold or heat. The water temperature should not be too low, and it is best to be below body temperature.

Method 2: If blisters form on the wound, be careful not to break the blisters, cut off the clothes that are stuck to the wound, send the child to the hospital in time, and let a professional doctor treat the blisters. If there are no blisters, disinfect the wound with iodine tincture and alcohol, and apply ointment or recovery liquid for treating burns. This can accelerate the healing of the child's wound. Do not leave it alone.

Method three: After the child is scalded, the wound should be disinfected and isolated, and the wound should be bandaged with clean and dry gauze. Be careful not to get the wound wet or dusty to prevent infection. Parents should be careful not to touch cold things after being scalded, not to eat spicy food in life, and not to touch heavy objects with scalded hands to avoid tearing the wound. If the blister breaks, be extra careful not to let water touch the child's wound when bathing.

The above are three emergency treatment methods for children’s hand burns. Parents need to know more about this knowledge to deal with such unexpected situations as soon as possible and relieve their children’s pain. Of course, these methods can only serve as emergency treatment. If the child's hands are blistered or the blisters burst, you need to take the child to the hospital for professional treatment. Never pick the blisters yourself to avoid infection.
