American beaches have become skating rinks. How to deal with frostbite?

The weather in the northeastern United States is cold, and the sea water washed on the beach in Maine freezes, forming a "beach skating rink". Some men put on skates and performed "skating" on the cold sea, having fun.

In recent days, cold wave weather has appeared in many places in the United States and China. In such bad weather, the treatment methods after frostbite are: washing with traditional Chinese medicine soup, rewarming first aid and drug treatment.

? Cleaning method of traditional Chinese medicine soup

For example, the washing method of eggplant and spicy garlic: take dried eggplant stems, pepper stems and garlic, soak the affected area in hot water, once a day, and wash it three times in a row. Cleaning method of Cinnamomum cassia twig, perilla leaf and dried tangerine peel: 50g, boiling for 65438±05min, and soaking the affected part in the liquid medicine for about 65438±05min.. For severe frostbite, it is forbidden to use wrong methods such as snow rubbing, cold water soaking and direct fire roasting.

2. Reheat first aid method

Reheating is the basic treatment. First, get rid of low temperature environment and frozen objects. Clothes, shoes and socks with frozen limbs should not be baked with fire. After melting with warm water of about 40℃, it should be removed or cut off. Then soak the injured limb or bathe the whole body with warm water of 38 ~ 40℃, and the water temperature should be stable, so that the local temperature will be rewarming within 20 minutes and the whole body will be rewarming within half an hour.

3. Drug treatment methods

Apply chilblain cream to the local epidermis and warm it two or three times a day. Antibacterials and corticosteroid ointment or frostbite cream are used for patients with erosion or ulcer. For mild frostbite, use nitrofurazone hydrocortisone cream, nitrofurazone cream, 85 1 cream or 10% white pepper alcohol. In case of severe frostbite, the frostbitten part should be immersed in warm water of 40-42 degrees Celsius, so that it can be quickly melted and rewarming. And then rushed to the hospital for treatment.

Summary: The weather is getting colder and colder. If you are not careful, you will easily get frostbite, and it will recur repeatedly, which will seriously affect your appearance and bring great inconvenience to your life. Pay special attention to prevent frostbite in the cold wave. The main principle is to keep warm and enhance cold resistance.
