May Day is a very good travel season, and many parents want to take their children to get close to nature, camping has become a good choice. #头条创作挑战赛#
13-year-old Wenwen went camping with his parents during the holidays, and they chose to camp in a wetland park, the scenery is very good, not only camping but also barbecue, and the family has a lot of fun.
I was in a good mood when I returned to school during the vacation, but I didn't expect Wenwen's teacher to call Wenwen's mother at noon on the second day of returning to school on vacation: Your child can't walk, she is paralyzed on the bed, tell her to walk and she says that she has no strength in her feet, you should hurry up and take the child to the hospital to have a look.
At that time, the mother was still thinking about whether the child was bullied at school and was beaten and injured, so she hurried to the school to pick up the child and take it to the hospital.
The teacher said: I was also very nervous when I found that Wenwen couldn't walk, I went to adjust all our monitoring today, the monitoring of the classroom, and the monitoring of the dormitory found that everything was normal, she was lying in bed when she went to bed at noon, and after the nap, the classmates got up, I told her to get up, and she told me that her feet couldn't move, and she didn't have the strength at all, so I called you.
The mother didn't care about arguing with the teacher at this time, but she felt in her heart that the child must have been bullied by others at school, so she couldn't walk, so she quickly took the child to the hospital.
My mother kept nagging when the doctor checked it: I could still run and jump when I went camping on May Day, and when I returned to school, I said that I couldn't walk, and something must have happened at school.
The doctor immediately asked the parents: Where did you go camping on May Day? The parent said a place, and then the doctor examined the child's body in detail, and found a small black bug the size of a mung bean on the top of the child's head, which was a tick, and the doctor said that the root of the problem was found, and the child was anesthetized because of a tick bite.
Tick bitesMany parents think that their children will have a fever of tick disease, but in fact, there is a rare disease, that is, "tick paralysis".
Because the tick sucks blood, it secretes a neurotoxin to the host, which causes the child to appear tired and numb, and it becomes more and more difficult to move.
The doctor also used a magnifying glass to show the child, after the tick on the child's head sucked blood, the tick still looked quite large, and the face was hideous, the doctor used an anesthetic to drip on the child's head, after a few minutes the doctor took a forceps and gently clamped the head of the tick, and then slowly turned a direction along the head of the tick, pulled out the whole tick and then looked at it with a magnifying glass, and found that the head of the tick was complete.
Now that the tick is taken out, the child will soon recover slowly, first observe in the hospital for half a day, if the child has improved, he can be discharged, if he can't move, it may be other problems, sure enough, Wenwen stayed in the hospital for more than an hour and said to his mother: Mom, it seems that my feet are a little stronger, and I can walk around in half a day.
And in recent days, ticks have also frequently rushed to the hot search. The Heilongjiang Provincial Red Cross Hospital mentioned that nearly 20 people were bitten by ticks almost every day in the past few days. Because there are more forest workers in Heilongjiang, and in fact, all parts of the country may be bitten by ticks, so we must take good protection when we go out with our children.
When taking the baby out in summer, it is best to do these five points of protection to avoid injury to the child
Number 1: Equip your child
That is, to dress the child in long clothes and trousers, shoes and socks to cover the parts of the body, as far as possible to reduce the exposed skin.
Point 2: Avoid going to places with dense vegetation
When taking children out into the wild, parents must be reminded not to go into those dense woods, because there are not only ticks in them, but also snakes.
Point 3: It is recommended to give your child insect repellent containing DEET
Mosquito repellent containing DEET applied to the child's exposed skin can not only repel mosquitoes, but also insects, such as ticks and the like, so be sure to use this type of mosquito repellent item when you are in the wild.
Point 4: Take your child outside the house and wear light-colored clothing as much as possible
Because ticks are dark, and many mosquitoes or other small insects, most of them are dark, if the child is wearing light-colored clothing, then you can see if these insects are stuck to the clothes.
Point 5: When you get home, you should have a detailed examination
When the child returns home, he should wash his hair and bathe, and check his head in detail to see if there are any ticks on his head, and his clothes should be washed.
Ticks seem to be very small, but once bitten is also very troublesome, parents should know some common sense, for example, if the child is bitten by a tick, do not pull hard, and the child should be taken to the hospital for examination in time after being bitten by a tick.
