How to deal with baby's broken lips

It is often difficult for newborn babies to walk, which makes it easy for them to get injured. The face is the most vulnerable part of a baby's body to wounds. If the wound is around the mouth, it is very easy for infection to occur due to talking, eating and other issues. Therefore, after the baby's mouth is injured, mothers must treat the wound in time. The following introduces some emergency methods after the mouth is injured.

1. How to break your lips

1. Check for foreign matter in the mouth

Look for broken teeth in the mouth or any broken teeth that may be stuck in the tongue area. If necessary, use a pair of tweezers to remove any other foreign matter from the mouth. If the tear is 1/2 inch or longer and continues to bleed, take your child to a doctor or hospital for a checkup.

2. Use a wet towel to stop bleeding

Cover the injured area with a wet, cool towel and apply firm pressure to stop the bleeding. This can temporarily coagulate the blood as quickly as possible and stop the continuous flow of blood, and the cold towel can help to relieve pain temporarily.

3. Wash the lacerated area with clean water

Once your child is calm, tilt your child's head forward and pour cool water over the bleeding area.

4. Disinfect with strong iodine

Generally, the lips have a strong healing ability. Do not let them come into contact with water for the time being, and disinfect them with strong iodine every day.

5. Apply Yunnan Baiyao externally to reduce inflammation

Apply Yunnan Baiyao to the broken part of your child's mouth, which can reduce inflammation, relieve pain and stop bleeding. Note: If the injured area swells, starts to ooze pus, or your child starts to have a fever, contact your pediatrician immediately.

2. Baby's Diet Precautions

1. Drink more boiled water

Drink plenty of boiled water to replenish water, keep your diet as light as possible, and eat more fruits and vegetables.

2. Take more vitamins

Soybean sprouts, rapeseed, cabbage, white radish, etc. are high in B vitamins. Intake of rich vitamins can moisturize the skin.

3. Avoid eating spicy food

Avoid spicy foods such as pepper, chili, ginger, etc. In addition, eat less melon seeds, fried cashews, pecans and other nuts to avoid irritation to the lips.

4. Eat liquid food

You can eat more liquid or semi-liquid foods such as yam and pork ribs porridge, fish soup, fruit puree, etc., and avoid eating foods that are easy to cause inflammation.
