After the baby turns one year old, their awareness of danger is not very good. They often fall or have other bumps and bruises. As parents, besides feeling sorry, they are also very worried about their child. Do you want to know if there are hidden dangers when your baby falls? Please refer to the following introduction for related content.
After a baby falls, the first thing parents should do is to observe the baby's mental state in a timely manner. If the baby's crying is loud and there are no serious lumps on the head, they can stop crying in a short time, which means the baby is fine. Parents can gently pick up their baby and check for any bleeding or swelling caused by external injuries. If the baby becomes lethargic, with dull eyes, accompanied by not eating, reduced appetite, or drowsiness, it is necessary to see a doctor.
After a baby falls, they usually experience bleeding, bruising, swelling, and convulsions from the wound. If there is bleeding, parents should wrap it with clean gauze and press on the bleeding area for a while. If the bleeding is severe, they should go to the hospital to see a doctor as soon as possible. If it is bruising and swelling, do not rub it, but use ice cubes for cold compress. Hot compress can only be applied after cold compress.
If the baby experiences convulsions, parents should not pinch the person. The correct approach is to first tilt the head to one side and loosen the clothing. After the baby's convulsions subside, go to the hospital for examination and receive treatment based on the results.
