In daily life, many of us will encounter some scalding problems, such as being burned by boiling water, splashing with high temperature oil, and being burned by cigarette butts. So what should we do after we are burned? Let's take a look at it with Xiaobian
First, what to do if your hand is burned
1. Once-in-a-lifetime burn
The wound should be immediately immersed in cool water for "cooling treatment", which has the effect of cooling down, reducing residual heat damage, reducing swelling, relieving pain, preventing blistering, etc. If there is ice, it is better to apply ice to the wound. "Cooling" for about 30 minutes can completely relieve pain. Then apply egg white or kaleid oil or burn cream to the burn area, so that it can heal itself in only 3 to 5 days.
The injured area should be immediately soaked in cold water to cool down, it can reduce the damage of the high temperature to the skin, as well as skin swelling, can play an analgesic effect, prevent blistering, if there is ice cubes
It should be noted that this "cooling treatment" should be carried out immediately after the burn, if it is soaked in cold water after 5 minutes, it can only play analgesic effect, and it cannot be guaranteed that there will be no blisters, because the hot residual heat will continue to damage the skin within 5 minutes. If the burned area is not a hand or foot, and the wound cannot be soaked in water for "cooling treatment", the injured part can be wrapped in a towel, and then watered on the towel, and it may be better to apply ice cubes.
2. Second-degree burns
Treatment is mainly anti-infection, analgesic, and promotes the healing of epithelial tissue. After routine debridement, disinfect the wound and surrounding skin with an iodine cotton ball and then wipe it clean with a brine cotton ball, and apply the wound to the gauze soaked with the new solution for rehabilitation, cover it with oil gauze, sterile gauze and bandages. The use of rehabilitation new liquid for burn wounds is light in pain, the healing time is short, the pigmentation after healing is slight, it is convenient to use, the price is moderate, the patient is easy to accept, and it is of great significance for clinical treatment.

Burns are one of the most common accidental injuries in children, all year round, whether day or night, the surgical emergency room will always rush into several parents who hold scalded children, most of them wrap their children with blankets or quilts, the children's clothes have been taken off, when the doctor opens the blanket or quilt, most of them have bulged large blisters or less skin, see the doctor shakes his head, anxious parents will only keep urging the doctor on the side, "Be fast, be fast." "But they don't know that they have missed the best time to alleviate the child's injury, improve the prognosis, and even aggravate the child's condition due to their incorrect treatment." Here are some family misconceptions about children's burns to help and alert parents who are overwhelmed by burns.
Myth 1: Ripping clothes.
Most of the children's burns are boiling water burns, because of their short stature, they often overturn or pull over the hot water bottle or cup placed on the table, and the boiling water burns the child from top to bottom. Boiling water is often poured into the arm by the cuffs, into the chest and even the abdomen through the head and neck, most parents will immediately take off the children's clothes to view the injury, which is deserved, but in the process of undressing, there will be a mistake and aggravate the injury, that is, because the parents have been flustered at this time, often tear off the baby's clothes, especially when the arm is burned, the sleeve is ripped off, and the friction of the clothes on the scalded epidermis will aggravate the damage to the scalded skin, and even pull off the injured epidermis. The correct treatment is actually very simple, take scissors to cut the sleeves to avoid the friction of the clothes on the injured surface.
Myth 2: Apply toothpaste.
Toothpaste is used to brush teeth, but we often find that the wounds of burned babies are coated with a thick layer of toothpaste, and whenever asked about parents, parents often say that they are told to do it. Applying toothpaste is not much in the eyes of ordinary people, and it is not advisable to sprinkle salt on the wounds of parents. Toothpaste is not only ineffective, but may also cause infection, and its clotting and adhesion wound will also make it more difficult for doctors to treat the wound. Therefore, do not apply toothpaste and other things that do not have a definite therapeutic effect on the burn wound, which is another misunderstanding of the family to deal with burns.
Myth 3: No emergency treatment.
The child is burned and sent to the hospital immediately, right? Not all right, the hospital is to send, but if it is a small area of limb scalding can be soaked in clean cold water or ice water for half an hour, which can reduce the injury and pain, if it is scalded in other places, you can also use a cold towel to cover the wound, but do not rub the wound. Treating the wound with cold water can neutralize the residual heat in the scalded skin, alleviate further thermal damage, and make the wound cool down quickly, which is very effective, but many parents have ignored this, and some parents still have the opposite attitude.
The last misunderstanding is the most dangerous treatment. A medical case was reported on a program in which a patient with moderate burns died a week after a visit to a private clinic (without a medical license). This case can give some parents who are greedy for cheap, convenient or blind listening to the advertisement of the package package, for the sake of your child's life, please race against time to choose a regular hospital for treatment.
Vinegar wash can treat burns!
Vinegar wash can treat burns! Vinegar is mainly made of millet, sorghum, corn, lees or persimmons, dates, grapes, hawthorn, etc. as raw materials, in addition to being used as a condiment, there are a wide range of medical functions.
The neighbor's 9-year-old boy accidentally burned his right hand with boiling water, he immediately rinsed him with vinegar, the method is: after the burn, if the skin is not damaged, immediately rinse the burned part with vinegar (preferably aged vinegar), and then put the toilet paper stacked into 4 layers in vinegar to soak, paste it on the burn, and add some vinegar every 10 to 15 minutes to keep the toilet paper moist. After half an hour, the pain in the child's burns disappeared and there was no blistering.
Vinegar is mainly made from millet, sorghum, corn, lees or persimmons, dates, grapes, hawthorn, etc. as raw materials, in addition to being used as a condiment, it also has a wide range of medical functions. Modern research believes that vinegar is rich in (1% to 5%) acetic acid, but also contains lactic acid, grape acid, succinic acid, amino acids, glycerin, aldehyde compounds, proteins, vitamins and minerals and other components, has a good bacteriostatic and bactericidal effect. Chinese medicine believes that acetic acid, temperate, has appetizing digestion, astringent and antidiarrheal effect, external use also has the effect of activating blood stasis, clearing heat and detoxification, reducing swelling and relieving pain.
According to the above principles, this side has a certain scientific reason. The effect of aging vinegar is better, because aging vinegar is based on grain as raw material, using solid fermentation method, after long-term aging and concentration, generally need to be brewed after a month of brewing, so its effect is stronger.
