Choking is very dangerous. For children, once choked, it can endanger their trachea and have a certain impact on their lives. Therefore, it is necessary to provide first aid when children choke. So, what are the first aid methods for children who choke?
The first aid method for a child who is choked needs to be adopted according to the specific age of the child. If it is a child under three years old, during the first aid, the child's feet can be held and the child can be inverted. After the child flips upside down, parents still need to tap the child's back with their hands, but this force must be careful not to be too strong. They also need to observe more during the tapping to see if the child will vomit anything.
When a child is choked and needs emergency treatment, if the child does not vomit anything, it is necessary to turn the inverted child over and let the child lie on the ground or on the rescuer's thigh. Then use the index or middle finger to compress, which can also save the child. But when giving a child's chest or abdomen, be sure to be gentle.
For children who choke, it is necessary to provide timely first aid. It should be noted that choking can easily lead to suffocation, and there is a certain time limit for providing first aid. The first aid methods introduced above are very useful, but it is recommended to practice more before use, so that after becoming proficient, the operation will be better.
