Wearing a "longevity lock" causes skin allergies.
situation
Last Friday, MengMeng Jr. was born one hundred days ago. Grandma put a long-lived golden lock on her. The gold chain and lock head look very beautiful. According to tradition, grandma deliberately stuffed the golden lock into Xiaomeng's baby and let her wear it around. Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, a lot of little red pimples appeared on MengMeng's neck. When I went to the hospital for examination, the doctor initially diagnosed that wearing "gold jewelry" caused allergies.
Experts dispel doubts: "Under normal circumstances, pure gold and sterling silver jewelry will not cause any adverse effects on the human body, but it is necessary to be wary that impure gold jewelry contains metals such as nickel or chromium, which may cause irritation to the skin, especially to the baby with delicate skin. Exposure to these things for too long will increase the risk of allergic dermatitis. " Experts said.
Dermatologists say that jewelry is not recommended for babies under 2 years old.
The silver bracelet "Little Bell" got into the baby's nostrils.
situation
Regarding the question of whether children wear jewelry, Ms. Xie still has a lingering fear.
It turned out that two months ago, when Beibei/Kloc-0 of Ms. Xie's family was 0 years old, Ms. Xie bought a pair of full silver bracelets for her children. Beibei likes to play with her little hands when wearing a silver bracelet. After one of the little bells "derailed", Beibei somehow stuffed it into her nostrils, and then she developed symptoms of shortness of breath. Ms. Xie hurriedly sent the child to the hospital for rescue.
Experts dispel doubts: "Jewelry of small parts is easily swallowed by the baby or stuck in the throat, causing suffocation. Many jewelry raw materials belong to heavy metals, such as gold and silver. If children put them in their mouths, it may cause heavy metal poisoning. " Liu Lei, an attending surgeon in the emergency department of Zhengzhou People's Hospital, said.
Experts say that some hard bracelets and other accessories, worn on children's wrists for a long time, are also easy to scratch the skin, leading to local skin damage and inflammation.
Wearing jewelry for your baby should be based on health.
Experts say that if some parents insist on letting their babies wear jewelry, they should try to choose jewelry that is harmless and conducive to the healthy growth of their babies. When buying metal ornaments, you should go to the store that has passed the quality inspection to buy products with good reputation. If it is jewelry or precious stones with high gold content, it should be left for six months to one year, and then worn after the radioactive intensity is reduced. She reminded parents not to wear gold and silver ornaments of unknown origin for their children, so as to avoid some elements in inferior ornaments from harming the skin. If the child wears it for a long time, be sure to go to a regular jewelry store to clean the jewelry regularly to avoid bacterial growth.
Experts suggest that the choice of jewelry should not be too small to avoid children choking by mistake. When purchasing, we should also pay attention to whether the stone inlay and welding are firm. Don't choose jewelry with sharp claws, rough workmanship and rough grinding to avoid scratching your child's skin.
