There are still two days to go before the New Year, parents are still busy making various preparations for the Spring Festival, and the children are playing and eating every day, and they are also looking forward to the New Year.
A few days ago to see a news hot search, in Sichuan Bazhong Pyeongchang County, a 10-year-old boy, with his mother shopping, threw firecrackers into the square sewers, the result of a rumble at the scene, 5 sewer manhole covers were blown off one after another, and the child and mother were also injured and fell to the ground.
When such a thing happens in the New Year, it is really a bad year.
But in fact, such things are not unique, and the incidence is especially high during the New Year. In addition to the occurrence of firecracker throwing, the high incidence of "child-rearing accidents" during the New Year, as well as brain injuries caused by feeding children alcohol, foreign bodies stuck in the throat, burns, frostbite...
Accident one: firecracker injuries
The sound of firecrackers has left the old age, and setting off firecrackers has become the most characteristic folk custom of the New Year.
Although everyone has begun to pay attention to the protection of the environment and reduce the display of firecrackers in the New Year, many families will still set off firecrackers for the festive and lively atmosphere, especially with children to set off firecrackers to enhance the sense of festive atmosphere.
But setting off fireworks and firecrackers, in fact, there are many hidden dangers, and you have to prevent them!
In addition to accidentally injuring the firecrackers when firing firecrackers, what is more vigilant is that, just like the previous case, the bear child threw the firecrackers into the well, which is more dangerous, even life-threatening!
In fact, during the New Year every year, it is not uncommon for bear children to set off firecrackers to cause fires and injury accidents.
On January 22, 2021, a child in Dazhou, Sichuan Province, threw a lit firecracker through the hole in a manhole cover, quickly ran away, and after a few seconds, there was a loud "bang" and a series of manhole covers were blown away in the explosion.
On January 10, 2021, in Yongning County, Yinchuan, Ningxia, a 10-year-old boy squatted on the manhole cover and threw a firecracker, the explosion was blown away in an instant, and the manhole cover also hit the window edge of the 6th floor when it rose. By the time the paramedics arrived at the scene, the child had no vital signs.
Many people may not realize this danger, "throwing firecrackers into the downwater well" may cause an explosion, this is because there is biogas in the downwater well, once it encounters an open fire, it may cause an explosion.
Firefighters often remind that in addition to throwing down wells, bear children may also put firecrackers into glass bottles, cans, or bury them in sand piles to seek the stimulation of explosion! But in fact, it is all dangerous!
The safety of their children is more careful, try not to let children play with firecrackers, adults must be present when setting off firecrackers, and usually give children to popularize possible accidental injuries.
Accident two: feed the baby wine
New Year's Day, adults gather to eat, drink and celebrate the New Year, and it is inevitable to drink.
Many parents will tease the children next to them to drink a little, maybe to pour less for the child, or it may be to use chopsticks to gently dip it, but this seemingly normal behavior may bring harm to the child for a lifetime!
In 2018, in Panzhihua, Sichuan, a 2-year-old child had stiff hands and feet and fever because he drank two or two liquors, and later died of ineffective rescue.
There was also a 2-year-old boy who was also teased and drank, foaming and twitching on the spot. He was quickly sent to the county hospital, and later transferred to two children's hospitals in the provincial city for treatment, and the doctor's final diagnosis was: alcoholism caused by brain damage and epilepsy.
Some parents may not understand: why is it that adults are okay to drink, but children are so dangerous to drink?
This is because the child's various organ systems are not fully developed, especially in babies under 3 years old, the nervous system is still developing rapidly, and the liver development and metabolic function are not perfect.
Regardless of whether it is white wine or rice wine, exposure to alcohol may cause allergies, and may also lead to alcohol poisoning, damage to liver function, and affect brain development.
So, don't give your kids a drink! If you also want to let your children celebrate together and feel the lively atmosphere of the New Year, drink juice at most.
Accident three: a foreign body is stuck in the throat
During the New Year, the home is always full of all kinds of delicious food, and the children are also open to all kinds of food and drink these days.
But for younger children, nuts, candy, jelly, etc. bought during the New Year are easily stuck when they are caught and eaten;
There are also older children who eat while running and playing, or eat while laughing, and may also be stuck.
If these conditions cannot be detected and rescued in time, they may be life-threatening.
Don't want to have a "troublesome year", this New Year's high incidence of accidents should also pay more attention.
Give children nuts, snacks, be sure to sit down to eat, do not run and jump, and under the care of parents and remove the shell and eat, if it is a smaller baby, it is not recommended to eat the whole, it is best to crush or grind to eat.
Don't think that it is safe for older children to eat, before a classmate of mine posted an outpatient case in the circle of friends: a mouthful of canned yellow peaches, asking for the life of a 10-year-old child.
This little boy, running and playing outside the house, the child's mother fed him a can of yellow peaches between play, he ate while running and playing, and within a few minutes, the neighbor found the child falling to the ground and bleeding from the nasal cavity. However, the family and the people around them have no first aid experience in this area, have not taken any first aid measures, and have no vital signs when they are sent to the hospital.
Is it very scary, the danger really happens inadvertently, in addition to prevention and prevention, the first aid methods that may be used, parents also need to learn.
For example, when a foreign body is stuck in the throat, parents should know the "Heimlich First Aid Method", must learn carefully, and really save lives at critical moments), timely and correct first aid.
If it is a baby under 3 years old, as shown in the picture below, use the back tapping method and the chest impact method.
Children over 3 years old or adults, the first aid method is different, as shown in the following figure.
▲ Jing Mama reminds: When a foreign body gets stuck in the throat, these first aid methods are "wrong"!
Just like the previous child's case, many parents have no common sense, no experience, in such a situation, in addition to panic, they may instinctively give the child back pat, drink water, swallow, drink vinegar to soften, etc., but these most commonly used methods are wrong!
Don't do this, not only will it not help your child out of danger, but it may also increase the danger because of the wrong method, or delay the first aid time.
Accident four: Baby burns
"Don't be hungry, child, after the eighth year is the year."
Think about when we were young, one of the reasons why we most look forward to the New Year is that we can eat a variety of food and snacks, and preparing various New Year's dishes in advance during the New Year is also an indispensable ritual to celebrate the New Year.
The adult is steaming busy, the child is easy to be ignored, it is easy to burn or burn around.
Coupled with the cold weather in winter, stoves, hot water, various heating equipment, etc., also lurk in this aspect of the unexpected risk, can not be careless, to protect the child.
Try not to let the child enter the kitchen, and try to put the hot rice and hot dishes in the place where the child can't reach.
The electric heater, stove, electric blanket, etc. at home should be used correctly and should not let the baby touch it.
Accident five: The baby is frostbitten
There is a saying that "Lachi Lapa eight freeze off the chin", which means that it is already very cold to enter the Waxing Moon, and during the New Year' period, it is exactly the ninth season, and it will be even colder, especially in the northern region.
During the New Year period, it is indispensable to walk around visiting relatives and friends, so we must pay attention to keeping the children warm and prevent frostbite.
In addition to wearing clothes of appropriate thickness, shoes should also try to wear thick soles to keep warm, and wear hats, gloves and masks when going out.
In the north, it is necessary to play less outdoors, and in the south, it is warmer outdoors on sunny days, and you can go outdoors to play more.
At the same time, we must also do a good job in skin care to prevent the baby from appearing "apple face", and you can apply more baby moisturizer after washing your face every day, and do a good job of protection when you go out to reduce dry and cold air irritation.
In short, the New Year, on this day of family reunion, do a good job of various prevention, do not let a variety of safety hazards bring harm to the baby.
