What should I do if my child hits his head and gets a blister?

When babies are infants and young children, they are prone to falling frequently because they walk very uncoordinatedly. This will inevitably lead to abrasions and bruises. Especially after a collision with the head, it is easy to get a blister, which will also cause pain to the baby. The main cause of the blister is due to the rupture of subcutaneous capillaries. So what should you do if a child hits his head and gets a blister? Let's take a look.

First, what should you do if your child gets a blister on his head? Don’t touch it often with your hands. Let it go away on its own. Apply some sesame oil on the blister, or apply thinly cut potato slices on it when the baby is sleeping, which can have an anti-inflammatory and swelling effect. You should quickly use cold compress to reduce swelling. 24 hours after blood stasis occurs, you can use warm water to compress the affected area to promote local blood circulation and accelerate the dissipation of blood stasis.

Second, wipe the injured area with a cool towel and clean it. Use a cotton swab to dip sesame oil and apply it evenly to cover the injured area. Sesame oil has the dual effects of isolating air bacteria and moisturizing the skin, helping the baby relieve pain. Before going to bed, wipe the affected area with a cool towel, clean off the sesame oil, cut the potatoes into thin slices, and apply them to the injured area. The protein, starch, vitamins, etc. contained in potatoes can help the baby recover from trauma. After 24 hours, apply warm water to dilate blood vessels and dissipate the swelling as quickly as possible. Generally speaking, subcutaneous hematoma can be slowly absorbed by the body, which takes about 2 weeks.

What should you do if your child hits his head and gets a bump? As soon as possible, rub the bumped area with the palm of your hand. This is what is called Luan Yiluan in rural areas. Then make sure to take your baby to places where there are many children or give him toys to divert his attention, and never let him cry for too long. When a baby cries, it is easy to damage the lung qi. If the mother has not weaned the baby, let the mother squeeze the milk into the palm of her hand and rub the bumped area, the bump will disappear completely the next day. If you rub the place where you were hit as soon as possible, there will be no bulge there. This trick works every time.
