The little baby has not fully mastered the technique of walking and needs more exercise, so it is inevitable that they will fall down. If they accidentally injure themselves, parents will not know how heartbroken they will be. But scratches are inevitable on a baby's growth path. If a baby has bruises on their face, parents should come up with remedial measures as soon as possible. So, what should I do if the baby's face is bruised?
At the beginning of bruising, parents like to use their hands to press and rub the bruised area, which may actually lead to the worsening of bruising. At this time, applying ice to the injured area is the correct approach. If you have a refrigerator at home, take out ice cubes from the refrigerator, wrap them in a towel, place them at the wound site, and remove the ice cubes after half an hour. Before complete healing, it is necessary to apply ice several times a day to prevent further bleeding from the wound and reduce the degree of bruising.
If the bruises on the baby's body are only discovered 24 hours after the injury, parents cannot use ice compress at this time, and can only use hot compress to help treat the baby. Soak the towel in hot water for a period of time, dry it, and apply it to the wound. Change every 5 minutes, and after persisting for half an hour, you can see the results. Hot compress can also improve the symptoms of local congestion, improve local blood circulation, and prevent the recurrence of congestion.
