Mosquitoes
The bite of these insects causes severe itching, redness of the skin and swelling. And if the baby still combs the place of the bite and the infection gets there, an abscess can form. Note that mosquitoes are attracted to dark-colored clothes. Therefore, if you are going to walk with the baby in places of large concentrations of these insects (for example, near a pond or on the edge of a forest), try to wear him light clothes. Pull the wheelchair with a special mesh. If mosquitoes are found at home, in the same way protect the baby crib. If the itching is too strong, take a teaspoon of baking soda, moisten it with water a little and get a thick gum cover the skin area around the bite. In case of a severe allergic reaction, call a doctor.
Sweetbones
Large, unpleasantly buzzing flies like to dwell in open spaces - on meadows and beaches. Fortunately, the hills fly not in packs, but only alone. Therefore, during the walk, be careful and just drive away the annoying fly away from the baby, waving for greater effect with a newspaper or a handkerchief. If the droplet flew into the car or into the room, open all the windows and doors wide: the doe does not like closed spaces, and as soon as the insect sees the way to freedom, it immediately flies away. Since the flies have no poisonous glands, the blister and unpleasant itching that occurs at the site of the bite are a common allergic reaction to the anticoagulant contained in their saliva. Therefore, antihistamine, recommended by the doctor, will bring the child relief. And the place of bite and horn, and the mosquito is treated equally.
Red ants
The bites of a red ant are very painful. They instantly cause acute pain and burning, unpleasant sensations last about 30 minutes. To protect the child from such misfortune, take care when walking. And if you notice an anthill in the forest or an ants track on a city asphalt, stay away from them. Keep in mind that the bite of a red ant can cause a severe allergic child up to anaphylactic shock. Carefully observe the baby within 24 hours after bite. If you notice that his skin is swollen around the eyes or if the whole face is swollen, if there is a hoarse breathing, blisters on the body, upset stomach - urgently call an ambulance. Immediately after the bite, disinfect this place (for example, a green leaf) and then treat it repeatedly for some time to prevent infection.
Bees, wasps, bumblebees
Striped furry insects are very attracted to people in bright clothes and with "stuffy" cosmetic smells. Therefore, when going for a walk with a crumb, avoid using cosmetics with a strong smell and do not wear things with "flashy" colors. Also watch out for the baby when he drinks sweet juice in the fresh air, especially from the cup: if the insect accidentally gets there, it will feel trapped and become very aggressive.
When you bite the bee, you must immediately remove from the wound a poisonous sting. It is better to do this with a needle disinfected in the fire and chilled. But you can also use your fingernails, after washing your hands with special care. Act quickly and neatly so as not to crush the sting. Unlike bees, wasps and bumblebees after themselves leave nothing. In place of the bite, ice or a cold compress with a weak solution of potassium permanganate should be applied. If the pain disturbs the crumb too much, give it paracetamol. And an allergy sufferer will need an antihistamine. Now we know what are the bites of insects, medicine, the treatment of a child.
