Mu Qiu was reading a book at home in the afternoon, watching a group of children sparring downstairs, a trace of burnout spread all over her body. When children are in a frenzy, falls, bumps, knees, and elbows are all normal things. Then some parents will feel that there is no blood, is there anything wrong, and it will be good to wait for a scab. This idea is very simple, but it is still necessary to cover the wound with a Band-Aid after standard disinfection measures to avoid tetanus.

Some people feel that once the wound is healed, the dressing should be changed every day. In fact, the role of the medicine is to disinfect and prevent wound infection and inflammation. After the first cleaning and disinfection is completed, there is no need to change the dressing every day, because the medicine has no effect on wound healing. If the injured part is not easily affected by hot flashes, and the wound is not easy to be infected twice, there is no need to change the dressing every day, just change the dressing once a week. However, if the dressing is changed every day, it will increase the chance of the wound being exposed to air pollution, which is not conducive to the recovery of the wound.

Don't use something like hemostatic powder on the wound area when bleeding has just occurred. It is unscientific to stop the bleeding without disinfection. Even if it is used, it must be disinfected with alcohol first.

When changing dressings at home, some parents will use hydrogen peroxide, purple potion, or even red potion instead of alcohol. This one is not effective for disinfection and cleaning. Instead, bacteria will grow under the scab, causing the wound to deteriorate and even purulent. Therefore, parents must Pay attention to this issue.

In many rural or remote areas, there are still many secret recipes or earthwork to treat wounds, such as "mud", "medicine wine", etc. These have no scientific basis. Sepsis causes death.PREV:No previous article
