A 2-year-old boy in Liaoning was bitten by ticks on the back of his head. How serious is the boy's injury
One-and two-year-old boys in Liaoning were bitten by ticks at the back of their heads. What is the boy's injury? Let's take a look.

As the temperature rises, everyone goes outdoors. But this time is also the high season for insects, especially ticks.

This kind of bug is very harmful. The sweetness of blood-sucking is only as big as that of a lion, and it will make you and your family feel it completely. You can't see them with the naked eye. Recently, a two-year-old boy in Liaoning province had a particularly big piece of meat on the back of his head, which was killing him. Later, after a doctor's examination, it was found that the bug had got in. Five days later, the bug was actually ten times bigger and still alive.

The child's grandmother said that on May 1 that day, they went to Shishanshi Mountain in Fushun together, through the Woods and through the grass. No problems were found at that time. When I came home that night, the child didn't respond, just scratched his neck.

Maybe a two-year-old child is not strong in original expression. I feel terrible already, but I can't say it. Four days later, the child's brother-in-law found the problem.

On May 5, the child's little brother played with the child and found a small meatball in the child's hair.

This time, grandma quickly took the child to the hospital, but by this time the tick had been lurking in the skin for five days. Conventional methods failed to get out, so the child came to Shenyang.

According to the attending doctor of the department of burn and plastic surgery, the skin of the child was obviously red and swollen when he was admitted to the hospital, and the tick was already the size of a big rice grain. Normal ticks are only as big as millet. Acari grow up in the process of sucking blood. Most people can quickly find themselves bitten by ticks, but because the child is only two years old, it can't be found in time.

So the hospital finally operated on the child and cut off the small piece of meat where the tick was. I believe that there are no other symptoms after operation, and the child has recovered very well. Looking at this energetic, lively and lovely child, grandma finally smiled.

I would like to remind you that after you find yourself bitten by ticks, you should immediately treat the wound with alcohol or paraffin. Alcohol has an anesthetic effect and can make dust mites fall off. Paraffin can seal ticks in the skin, make them suffocate, and then fall down by themselves. But you can't dig out ticks directly by hand, and you can't shoot ticks to death on the skin, because the residual venom will still stay in the skin, which may cause extremely harmful infectious diseases such as forest encephalitis, and in severe cases, it will kill you.

So remind everyone that when traveling outdoors, you must pay attention to your child's physical condition. If the child is found to be abnormal, it is necessary to check it as soon as possible, and it is not good to delay the treatment opportunity.
