Children are very lively and curious, so they are prone to injuries such as falls and burns. Parents must be more careful when taking care of their children, and they should also learn some emergency handling knowledge so that they can handle their children's injuries in a timely manner. So, what if a one year old child gets burned?
A one year old child's skin is very delicate, so after being burned, most cases will be more serious. When parents discover that their child has been burned, they can quickly rinse with cold water for at least half an hour, which can effectively reduce skin temperature and relieve the pain of the burn. However, everyone should be aware that if there are symptoms of skin rupture, washing should not be done, otherwise it is easy to get infected.
If the burn is not severe, parents can apply some burn ointment to their children. If there are blisters on the burned area, no special treatment is required. If there are large blisters, they cannot be treated at home. Children should be taken to the hospital in a timely manner to avoid infection of the wound. Parents are advised not to use traditional methods for treatment.
If a child's burn is on their body, they must not take off their clothes directly. Because during burns, clothes are likely to adhere to the skin. If you take off your clothes at this time, it is easy to tear your skin, which can cause greater harm to your child. Parents should use scissors to cut open their clothes.
