What will happen if you don't prick your hand
If the prick is not deep (within about 2mm), the prick can be discharged with the keratinization process of the skin. But if the prick is too deep, the body will treat the prick as an antigen when it hurts the dermis or even subcutaneous tissue. Phagocytes will act and there will be an inflammatory reaction at the wound. When stimulated, fibroblasts will also activate and form scar tissue at the wound, that is to say, scars will form around the wound. After that, if they continue to tighten, the thorn will become difficult to pull out, that is to say, it will grow together with meat.
Tips for picking "thorns in the flesh"
1. Warm water immersion
Soak the pricked place with warm water and soak it for a while. Using the principle of thermal expansion and cold contraction, the prick on the baby's hand is pushed out by itself, and then carefully take out the prick with hand or tweezers. The effect of this method is very good, but it should be noted that the baby's skin is delicate. Don't use too hot water to avoid scalding.
2. Vegetable oil softening
Drop a few drops of vegetable oil on the finger that pierces the thorn. The vegetable oil will slowly penetrate into the skin and soften the thorn to a certain extent. Just take it out with tweezers at this time.
3. Fengyoujing relieving pain
Our traditional method of taking a thorn is to pick it with a needle. The baby may feel very painful. You can drop a few drops of essential balm where the thorn is pricked, and then pick it with a needle, so as not to feel pain and no bleeding. It should be noted that the needles used should be disinfected to avoid infection.
4. Shangshi Zhitong ointment
If you are pricked by a cactus or rose thorn, you can stick it on the affected area with dampness and pain relief ointment, and then heat it locally. You can put your hand on the electric lamp and tear off the ointment quickly when the dampness and pain relief ointment is hot, so that the thorn can be stuck out.
5. Magnet
If the thorn is metal, such as iron thorn, you can first pick a seam on the skin surface with a needle, and then suck it with a magnet, so that the thorn can be easily sucked out.
