How do I inject a baby?

It is not always possible to reduce the temperature of conventional paracetamol and aspirin. Folk methods, like rubbing with vinegar, help, but not for long. In this case, the child's heat can be knocked down with a shot of analgin with dimedrol. Especially if the baby gets sick suddenly, he has a high fever and needs to be lowered without delay, then the parents can do the injection themselves from the temperature of their child. Or there are cases when your child has been given injections, and you can not go to hospital for any reason.

Not so long ago, three-component syringes appeared on the drugstore shelves. They differ from their predecessors in that a rubber seal is attached to the piston moving inside the syringe, which allows the drug to be administered almost painlessly. After all, those who do injections, know with what effort it is necessary to press the plunger of the syringe with the introduction of the medicine. In addition, sometimes the piston moves by jerks, which, it agree, is not very pleasant, especially for a child for whom every injection is stressful.

So, for carrying out the manipulation, we need:

It is necessary to know exactly where to give the child an injection. And if you heard that injections are done to children in the ass, then this information is clearly not enough. It is necessary to mentally divide the buttock into four parts, and make a prick in the upper outer square. Only then will you not get a needle in a bone or vessel.

How to properly inject a child?

A very small child is not afraid of injections, because he does not know what it is. And our task is to try not to impress the kid with horror before medical manipulations.

Therefore, all the preparatory work should be carried out so that the child does not see it, but also to make a prick snooping, too, can not. With a grown up child, you need to discuss this in advance, but if the child still resists, then the injection should be done with Assistant who will keep or distract the child.

So, my hands, rubbing them with alcohol, we get a medicine into the syringe, and by clicking on the syringe we knock out air bubbles. Then just press the piston to release it. The place of injection is treated with alcohol and at an angle of 90 degrees with a sharp movement completely enter the needle. The medicine should not be administered quickly, because a lump can form.

If the cone is formed after the injection, then the injection site should be smeared with such means as: traumeel c, levomycol, heparin. Either use the folk method of applying cabbage leaf with honey or a plate of unsalted hard cheese. It is also useful to make an iodine grid.
