In life, emergencies often occur, and mastering first aid skills can effectively increase the life safety index. These 10 first aid tips I hope you have mastered firmly, but you will never use them!
Cat and dog bites:In the case of dog or cat bites, a tourniquet should be tied as soon as possible and the wound should be kept in a high position to prevent the infection from spreading throughout the body, and the wound should be cleaned with clean or soapy water. Be careful not to bandage the wound and go to the hospital as soon as possible to get the rabies vaccine and tetanus antitoxin. As a reminder, pets that are close to each other, while cute, are not to be taken lightly.
Bee sting:If you are stung by a bee, wash the bite with soapy water and remove the needle as much as possible. Ice cubes can be used to relieve pain and swelling if needed. However, if you experience severe redness, swelling, rash, fever or difficulty breathing, it is important to seek medical attention**.
Flying insects burrow into the ears:If a flying insect gets into your ears, don't dig it with your fingers or anything else, as it will make the little insect drill deeper and deeper. The correct way is to go to a darker place and shine a flashlight on the ear canal, using the phototaxis of insects, so as to attract flying insects, and the patient is not relieved of the trouble. Be careful when handling it.
Electrocution:Electric shock is extremely dangerous to the human body and needs to be dealt with promptly. If you notice an electric shock, turn off the gate or power switch immediately and unplug it. It is best to use bamboo poles, wooden sticks, plastic products, rubber products, leather products and other items to pick up the leakage parts, if the electrocuted person is still stuck on the machine, the electrocuted person should be pushed away as soon as possible with dry insulated cotton clothes and quilts.
Stuck in a crowd :When a crowd is crowded, it can lead to a decrease in the flexibility of the human body, and it is very easy to get caught up in it. If you notice that the crowd is too dense, leave immediately. If you can't walk, don't squat down and keep your hands in front of your chest to keep room to breathe. It is best to move in the direction of ** and find a breakthrough to escape from the crowd in order to keep yourself safe.
Ears with water:For water in the ear, we should tilt our head to the side of the water inlet and gently pull the pinna, or put the little finger shallowly into the ear canal and gently dig so that the water can flow out smoothly. In addition, take a clean paper tok, roll it into a long strip, and slowly rotate it into your ear, when the paper touches the water, it will absorb the water.
Nosebleeds:If you have nosebleeds, do not look up, but pinch the sides of the nose with your fingers for 4-8 minutes, or use a cotton ball soaked in ice water to fill the nasal cavity and compress the bleeding.
Sunburn:For sunburn, the quickest and most effective way is to apply ice. First, rinse the sunburned area with cold water, and then wrap ice cubes in a towel and apply it to the sunburned area until you feel comfortable. If the sunburn is severe and large blisters appear, do not pick them up, and it is best to go to the hospital to deal with them to avoid infection.
Pierced to the thorns:If you are accidentally pricked by a wooden thorn, we can pick out the wooden thorn with the help of tweezers or a needle, and then squeeze out the bruise from the wound. Next, rinse with clean water and scrub with alcohol or iodine. If the wound is red and swollen, it can be reduced with ice. However, if the penetration is too deep, even if it is removed, you should go to the hospital to be injected with tetanus antitoxin to prevent infection.
Burns:In the case of burns, we need to immediately rinse the burned area under running water or apply a cold compress with a cool towel. Wrapping gauze or bandages around the burn can also be effective in relieving pain. Note that the burned area should not be ice-packed, otherwise it will damage the already damaged ** and cause the wound to worsen. If a blister forms on the burn, we should also avoid breaking it as this can leave a scar.
