Symptoms of heatstroke
Baby, the first aid method after heatstroke
1. Reduce the temperature
Move the baby to a cool place, take off your clothes, and if possible, use an electric fan or air conditioner to reduce the ambient temperature. Wipe the whole body with a warm wet towel, and don't use ice water or ice cubes to make the body temperature drop sharply, otherwise the blood vessels in the skin will be extremely tight, and the blood flow in the skin will be blocked and the heat can't be discharged.
2. Keep breathing unobstructed and pinch acupoints.
Keep your baby's respiratory tract unobstructed. If you vomit, clean up the filth in time. If the baby is in a coma, you can pinch the baby's Renzhong point, Neiguan point and Hegu point, or there are objects with needles around you. You can disinfect them with fire first, then stab them with needles and squeeze out blood drops. These two methods have good therapeutic effects on the baby who is sweating and collapsing.
Step 3 drink water moderately
If the baby is conscious, you can drink some light salt water and mung bean soup, but you can't drink too much water, especially hot water. Because drinking too much hot water will make the baby sweat profusely, which will further cause a large loss of water and salt in the body, and even cause convulsions in severe cases. Generally, two or three-year-old babies can drink 30~50 ml every hour. It should be noted that don't give water to the unconscious baby, which is easy to cause vomiting.
4. Massage acupoints
The method is very simple. Find the depressions on both sides of the baby's back neck tendon, the wind pool parallel to the earlobe, massage with food and middle finger, and find the cavity below the baby's lower lip to press, which can achieve the effects of relaxing neck and shoulder muscles, relieving dizziness and headache, promoting fluid production and quenching thirst.
5. Seek medical attention in time
If the baby has high fever, that is, the body temperature reaches above 38 degrees Celsius, send it to the hospital as soon as possible.
