Children have a lively and active personality, and it is normal for them to frequently bump into each other. So, in general, it's normal for a child to have some small bruises on their body. If a child is not injured, but has large areas of varying degrees of bruising and bruises on their body, parents should pay extra attention. So, what should I do if I'm worried about my child's foot pain and bruises?
If a child's foot bruising is caused by external force, parents should take timely action. Within 24 hours, cold water towels or ice packs can be used locally to compress the capillaries, reduce local bruising, and alleviate pain. If it has occurred after 24 hours, warm water can be applied locally to promote blood circulation and help the stasis dissipate faster.
In addition, a quick way to eliminate bruises is to apply a thin layer of potato chips on the bruised area in addition to local hot compress. Applying pre cut potato slices to the bruised area of the child can help quickly reduce swelling, or wrapping boiled eggs in gauze and rolling them back and forth at the bruised area can also help reduce swelling. In addition, you can also apply a towel soaked in hot vinegar to the bruise area, 1-2 times a day, which can quickly eliminate the bruise.
If a child accidentally hits and causes subcutaneous capillaries to rupture, resulting in bruising, the stressed tissue will be damaged, the blood vessels in the subcutaneous tissue will rupture, and blood will enter the tissue gaps, forming intradermal and subcutaneous bleeding. The formation of blood clots under the skin due to bleeding is a common form of bruising, which is slowly absorbed by white blood cells in the body.
