In the summer, all kinds of frequent flying insects are often a headache. Pat, knead, crush... Sometimes doing so not only can not drive away the flying insect "attack", but may cause "trouble"!
Hangzhou's mother slapped the cryptopteropter on her daughter's face
The next day the baby's face was "ruined"
Just a few days ago, Ms. Zhou in Hangzhou was washing the face of her daughter, who was less than 3 years old, when a bug suddenly flew and stopped on the child's right cheek. At that time, she instinctively slapped the worm down. But when she was ready to go to bed, the child began to cry, and when Ms. Zhou looked, a strip of red marks about 5 centimeters long appeared on the child's face.
After the consultant doctor learned the medical history, he judged that the red mark on the girl's face was likely to be acute dermatitis caused by skin contact with cryptoptera venom. Usually it is fine for cryptoptera to crawl to the surface of the skin, but if it is slapped, rubbed or crushed, the toxins in its body will get on the skin, causing strips or flaky edematous erythema, dense papules, blisters or pustules on the skin, and severely, large erosion surfaces or superficial skin necrosis. When cryptoptera falls on the body, be careful to blow it away or shake it off. In case of accidental contact with its venom, the affected area can be rinsed with soapy water to neutralize the toxicity and go to the hospital in time.
In addition to cryptopteropters, ticks, mites, scrubs and other summer insects are also frequently seen... How to prevent insects in the summer? Hurry up and put away this set of practical insect control manuals + coping methods ↓↓
