What should I do if my baby is frostbitten?

Baby's skin is fair and delicate, and it is easy to get frostbite in cold winter. Although many parents have taken preventive measures, it is still inevitable. When the baby's face turns white and gray, it means that the baby has been frostbitten, and frostbite is easy to frostbite, causing frostbite, bleeding and leaving scars. So be sure to pay attention to the baby's skin and don't let the baby freeze.

Stay away from heat sources.

Don't let the frostbitten baby get close to the hot radiator, radiator, heat radiation lamp (small sun), stove or open flame immediately. Approaching them quickly can not only relieve frostbite, but also burn frostbitten and damaged skin.

Don't take a hot bath.

Don't let the frostbitten baby take a hot bath or iron his feet to keep warm immediately. After frostbite, the skin nerve sensation is weakened, and rapid heating will only aggravate the injury.

♀? Don't rub your skin

Don't rub the baby's frostbitten skin. If we don't grasp the strength blindly, the skin tissue damage caused by frostbite may be more serious and even infected.

Stay indoors

Bring the baby indoors at once. When you find that your baby is frostbitten, bring it back indoors immediately. At the same time, warm your baby's frostbitten area with your body temperature, unbutton your coat or shirt, and hold your baby so that it is close to your skin.

Soak in warm water

Soak frostbitten parts with warm water, such as soaking frostbitten fingers or toes in water at 39~40℃. If it is inconvenient to measure, you can test the water temperature with your elbow.
