Baby health is a topic that every mother is very concerned about, especially in this period of the spread of the new crown epidemic, many mothers choose to take their baby's temperature from time to time.
When everyone measures their body temperature, they generally use mercury thermometers, which are cheap and can generally be bought in pharmacies. But it has to be said that the mercury in the mercury thermometer contains high toxicity, and if it is not carefully entered into the body, it may cause great damage to health.
Of course, there is a way to save the above problems. The four-year-old baby of the friend XiaoWen family accidentally bit a thermometer, as a mother, Xiaowen was very calm, and successfully saved the baby in 5 steps in half an hour, and even the doctor praised it.
Xiaowen is a single mother who is very busy every day in order to be able to balance work and family. Xiaowen has a four-year-old baby Hanhan, who is well-behaved and cute on weekdays, and gets along with Xiaowen very happily.
One day, Xiaowen returned home from work as usual to prepare for cooking, and by the way, he took the mercury thermometer to Han Han to let the child take his body temperature, and Han Han conveniently took the thermometer in his mouth and used the mouth-type temperature measurement method, while measuring the body temperature, he sat on the ground and played with building blocks.
However, when Han Han stood up and prepared to take something, he accidentally slipped and fell down, and the thermometer in Han Han's mouth was also bitten because of this wrestling, and mercury and broken glass ballast were spilled into his mouth.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Wen hurriedly put down the work in his hand and told Han Han not to move, otherwise he would be scratched in the mouth by the glass ballast. Next, these five steps of Xiaowen are like textbook templates, which are worth learning from your mothers:
Correct handling
1. Clean the glass ballast and mercury in your mouth
Xiao Wen took out the tweezers and small spoons in the medicine box, carefully clipped out the broken glass ballast in Han Han's mouth, and then used the spoon to bring out the mercury in his mouth.
Then Xiao Wen picked up the flashlight and shined it on Han Han's mouth to ensure that the mercury was indeed cleaned up and would not cause secondary harm to the baby.
2. Observe whether the oral cavity is damaged
Mercury is very harmful to the human body, if it is only left in the digestive tract, it is likely to be excreted by the body's metabolism, but once it enters the bloodstream, it will cause irreversible damage.
Xiao Wen carefully observed the inside of Han Han's mouth to make sure that there was no wound, that is, mercury did not enter the baby's blood circulation system.
3. Keep the indoor air circulation good
After doing this, Xiaowen calmed the baby's emotions, and then opened all the doors and windows in the house. Because once the mercury thermometer is broken, the mercury content in the house exceeds the standard, which may have a later adverse effect on the child's health.
Open the window to ensure that the air circulation in the house is good, which can take away the mercury content exceeding the standard indoors, and give the baby a warm and healthy family environment.
4. Supplement high-protein foods
Mercury is easily combined in the human body with high-protein foods, resulting in stool excretion. Xiaowen quickly prepared the egg whites of two raw eggs and mixed a large cup of milk and then Han Han ate it, so as to form a protective mucous membrane in the stomach at the same time, and timely excrete the mercury from the outside of the body to prevent it from flowing further inside the baby and causing poisoning.
5. Go to the hospital to check and take a film
Xiaowen's rescue measures have ensured that most of the mercury is excreted, but it is difficult to ensure that all the mercury is excreted from the body, so she took Han Han to the hospital for examination, and in the film taken by the hospital, only a small part of the mercury remains in the baby's body, and the impact is not very large.
After returning home, Xiaowen prepared many high-fiber plants such as celery for the baby to help the baby further eliminate mercury. After that, they made another film, showing that the baby was completely out of danger, and the whole family finally breathed a sigh of relief.
