Unfortunately, the liquefied gas leaked and exploded.

Causing multiple burns all over his body.

In desperation, the family members adopted local folk remedies.

Spread flour all over him and send him to the hospital for treatment.

The patient wrapped in flour was carried into the ambulance.

On October 23rd, 65438/KLOC-0, Mr. Ouyang was being treated in the Burn Center Ward of 909 Hospital.

According to the medical staff, the patient is still not completely out of danger, and many operations are needed in the later stage.

Mr Ouyang's wife said that it happened on the afternoon of September 30th 15, when three people, including her husband, were burned by liquefied gas explosion. Among them, the husband was the most seriously injured and burned all over the body to varying degrees.

Anxious family members contacted 120 ambulance and took partial remedial measures, that is, they found a bucket of flour, sprinkled some on the ground, let the injured lie on the flour, and then sprinkled thick flour from head to toe.

In desperation, the family members used local remedies to spread flour all over the burned people.

10 On June 8th, the hospital performed the largest escharectomy and skin grafting for patients with upper limb trauma.

Lin Lutian, the attending physician of the 909 Hospital Army Burn Center, said that the patient recovered well after operation and his condition was serious, and he had not yet passed the critical period. The next step is to carry out skin grafting two or three times according to the situation.

The patient is still receiving treatment.

Dr. Lin thinks it is not advisable to sprinkle flour after burns, and the more you sprinkle, the less painful it will be, and there is no scientific basis.

He believes that spreading flour after burns is not only not conducive to timely heat dissipation, but also deepens wound pollution, affects debridement and increases the probability of infection.

"The most important thing after a burn is heat dissipation. Once stained with flour, the body can't dissipate heat and may pollute the wound. "

Dr. Lin reminded everyone that if burns and scalds occur, the best way to deal with them is to leave the heat source as soon as possible, and wash the injured part with cold water or wet compress it with cold water. Do not soak in irritating liquids such as white wine and urine, and do not apply colored substances such as purple liquid, red liquid, toothpaste, plant ash, ointment and soy sauce. Otherwise, it is easy to cause secondary injury and affect the judgment and cleaning of wound depth.
