The child's genitals were bitten by mosquitoes

Children's skin is very sensitive. Once bitten by a mosquito, they will react quickly with redness, swelling and itching. It is even more difficult to deal with if a child is bitten on the genitals. Because if the genitals are bitten, you cannot scratch them, and children's control ability is not as good as adults. Once the genitals feel itchy, they will scratch subconsciously. If they use too much force, it may cause other more serious injuries. So, what should you do if your child's genitals are bitten by a mosquito?

Studies have shown that mosquitoes are selective when biting people, and those who can provide mosquitoes with rich cholesterol and vitamin B are most favored by mosquitoes. Mosquitoes use smell to find the most suitable objects for their "taste" among the crowd. Cholesterol and vitamin B are two substances that are essential for the survival of annoying insects such as mosquitoes, but they cannot produce them themselves.

Mosquitoes have a strong sense of smell. When humans exhale carbon dioxide and other odors, these odors spread into the air, and these odors are like dinner bells, telling mosquitoes that a delicious meal is just around the corner. When a mosquito tracks its target, it always moves forward in a zigzag manner following the scent exhaled by the person until it contacts the target. It then lands on the skin and patiently looks for a "breakthrough" before finally inserting the "needle" directly into the skin to suck blood for 8-10 seconds.

2. The following types of people are more likely to attract mosquitoes:

One is people with well-developed sweat glands and higher body temperature.

The second group is people who are tired or have a faster breathing rate.

The third type is people who like to wear dark clothes.

Fourth, people with fast metabolism.

Five are people who wear makeup.

Six is ​​pregnant women.

Seven is the drinker.

1. Take a shower as soon as possible after exercise to keep your skin fresh. When it is hot, you sweat a lot, so you should wipe off the sweat with tissues or handkerchiefs in time.

2. If there are many mosquitoes in your daily activity area, you should wear long-sleeved clothes. This is not because there is an extra layer of cloth on your body, which prevents mosquitoes from using their mouth needles to penetrate and suck your blood. In fact, the mosquito's mouth needle is very sharp and can even penetrate cowhide and thick jeans. The clothes we wear in summer are simply not able to withstand a "bite". The main function of clothes is to cover up the smell of skin secretions such as sweat, so that mosquitoes cannot track them.

3. It is best to wear white clothes for outdoor sports, because white clothes have strong reflective ability and can repel Aedes mosquitoes.

4. Don’t not wear socks in the summer because you feel too hot. This will cause the smell of sweat to evaporate quickly and attract mosquitoes to attack other parts of the body. Wearing socks with good sweat-wicking properties can not only effectively reduce skin moisture, but also cover up odors.

5. When going to places with many mosquitoes, it is not advisable to use cosmetics with strong odors such as perfume.

1. Most people will experience symptoms such as redness, swelling, itching and pain after being bitten by mosquitoes. At this time, alkaline substances can be used to relieve the symptoms. For example, ammonia water can be used to relieve the itching, or soap dipped in water can be applied to the red and swollen area, which can relieve the itching within minutes.

2. If the bite is very itchy, flick it with your fingers first, and then apply floral water, wind oil, etc.

3. Apply or soak the itchy area with salt water, which can soften the swelling and effectively relieve itching.

4. The juice in aloe leaves can be used to relieve itching. If the area becomes red, swollen and itchy after being bitten by a mosquito, you can cut a small piece of aloe vera leaf, wash it, break it apart, and apply it to the red and swollen area a few times to reduce the swelling and relieve the itching.
