Pregnant women need to pay extra attention to all aspects of their lives, as pregnancy is a relatively special stage. Only by ensuring one's own health can the fetus develop healthily. But sometimes bumps and bruises are inevitable in daily life, so what should pregnant women do if they scratch their hands?
1. Accidentally rubbing the skin on the hands of pregnant women is a mild local skin lesion. If medication is used to disinfect and anti-inflammatory the area, it usually does not affect the healthy development of the fetus. Therefore, pregnant women who experience such situations do not need to be overly nervous. You can use the local anti-inflammatory and disinfectant prescribed by the doctor, and perform wound cleaning and disinfection care on time.
2. If a pregnant woman's skin is scraped on her hands during the relatively cold winter season, she should be bandaged after necessary debridement and disinfection treatment. To avoid frostbite, it is important to keep the affected area warm for better wound healing. It is also necessary to pay attention to changing the dressing on time and reapplying the bandage.
3. If the pregnancy is in a relatively hot summer season and the skin is scraped on the hands, after performing debridement and disinfection care, if the skin lesion area is not large, it is not necessary to bandage it, but attention should be paid to avoiding getting wet and touching the skin lesion site. Not over bandaging during hot weather is more conducive to faster healing of damaged skin. In addition, during the recovery period, if there is severe redness and swelling in the skin area that has been scraped, as well as signs of exudation, timely medical treatment should be sought.
