  After a one year old baby gets sunburned, parents should not panic and apply cold compress to the sunburned skin as soon as possible to avoid further damage. If it is not serious, it is best to try not to apply anything. If the baby's skin is severely sunburned and blisters appear, you can apply some olive oil. If blisters appear from sunburn, you can puncture them with a disinfectant needle, but remember not to peel off the skin. Simply squeeze out the blister fluid gently and apply medication.

  When sunbathing, babies need to control their time and it is best not to stay in strong sunlight for more than 15 minutes. Baobao has chosen to sunbathe in the gentlest and most harmless time. Usually, from 7am to 10am, the UV rays of the sun can damage the immune system so severely. Therefore, the morning and evening sunshine are suitable for babies to be active outside. Do not let babies go out at noon, and apply baby specific sunscreen when going out.

  When going out, babies should also wear a sun umbrella and a sun hat. It is worth reminding parents that they should also take good care of their babies' sun protection on cloudy days, because for babies, UV rays on cloudy days are also harmful.
