How to deal with a baby's minor scald

   1. If the baby is accidentally burned, but the condition is not serious, but the skin is reddened, it is enough to take care of it directly at home. If a baby is found to be scalded, it should be rinsed with cold water as soon as possible. If the clothes are separated, the clothes can be washed directly. After the washing is complete, take off the baby's clothes. Prevent clothes from sticking to baby's skin.


   2. Keep some at home, and apply the scald cream for babies to the wound. When applying, use medical cotton swabs instead of hand directly to prevent wound infection.


  3. Treat the wound well, avoid scratching by the baby to prevent aggravation of wound infection. While taking care of the baby, it is best for parents to wrap the wound with breathable gauze. Even if the baby scratches, it will not cause much damage to the wound.


   4. Breastfeeding mothers must eat a light diet and drink plenty of water, so that the baby will not get angry easily, and it is also good for the recovery of the wound.


  5. Breastfeeding mothers eat more fruits and vegetables, so that through breastmilk, the baby's resistance will be strengthened.
