Question
What should I do if my 2.5-year-old child accidentally ingests pediatric skin care from a traditional Chinese medicine family?
Answer
Hello, your child is two years old and has shown signs of accidental medication ingestion. Currently, it is important to encourage them to drink plenty of water and milk, and to maintain a light diet. The treatment guidance is as follows: It is advisable to drink some milk and water, in small amounts, as this generally has little impact. The diet should be light, and warmth should be maintained. Nutrition should be comprehensive, and there should be no picky eating. Observation is key. We know that pediatric genetic metabolic diseases can cause significant harm to children. If not treated promptly or with improper treatment methods, the condition can progress rapidly, posing great harm to the child. Therefore, parents should pay more attention to their child’s condition and seek treatment promptly.
