Doctor Nguyen Van Loc, deputy director of the National Hospital of Pediatrics, said the fact that Tet is a hospital occasion often receives unusual cases of children, mainly due to injuries.

Decoration of houses, many families use flashing lights for doors, whipping, digging, and many things need to use boiling water ., if adults do not pay attention, just a little negligence can cause burns or electric shock.

Hard objects such as bones, metal (flowers, peeling knives, food processing tools) can be swallowed. More dangerous, sharp objects that enter the intestine can pierce the intestine.

Children who eat too much candy can cause abnormal hyperglycemia leading to excessive urination and dehydration, and this is the cause of later pathological events.

The change in the rhythm of the Tet holiday also creates very special cases. The National Hospital of Pediatrics used to accept the case that the children were brought into the house by the family and kept crying without knowing the reason. When the doctor visited, it was said that because the family was crowded with people, they were busy with the meals, they thought that the other had given them to eat, so the children cried because of hunger, not pain, any disease!

Be cautious with silver and gold rings

Keeping children warm when going to the street, coming to play with relatives also needs to pay attention. However, parents should not wear too much clothing for their children to make them uncomfortable because they cannot breathe. The closing of diapers (diapers) must also be limited because long-time diapers will cause the bacteria to cause urinary tract inflammation, dermatitis of the private area due to very thin and sensitive skin.

On Tet holiday, children also often go to pagodas by their parents and grandparents. When buying a strap for children, it must also be very careful because many crafts have sharp corners that can cause scratching in the neck area, inflammation, acne and festering. Children 6-7 months of age are developing their milk teeth, itching is good when they bite and swallow the face of the strap. These sharp pieces of plastic or metal can puncture the gut, digging into the stomach.

For other jewelry such as rings, silver or gold bracelets, it is also recommended to choose a slippery, not picky child by fancy decorative shapes with sharp corners to beautify children. Especially in the winter and spring, the weather is still cold, children wear many clothes, jewelry is more easily rubbed. Moreover, the skin scratches on the child's neck, arms and legs were also covered by clothes so many parents did not pay attention to the injuries hidden to the children.
