In cold winter, many people like to watch the snow outside while soaking in the hot spring. Is it very comfortable? Can children soak in the hot spring? It's better not to soak in the hot spring for children under three years old!
Infants aged 0-3 should not take hot springs.
0-3 years old is the high incidence age of infant allergy. Generally, parents are not recommended to take 0-3-year-old infants to hot springs. Because infants of this age are in the development of brain nerves and body organs. Because the water temperature of hot springs is usually higher than that of human body, some hot springs are even hotter. Such high water temperature will speed up the metabolism of the human body and accelerate the blood circulation in the body. The baby's skin is tender and has poor thermoregulation. Because of the high temperature of hot spring, it will lead to the expansion of human blood vessels, so that more blood flows to the whole body, while the blood flow to the brain is reduced, and the blood supply to the brain is insufficient, which will undoubtedly harm the brain cell development of the baby.
Note that the tolerance of children is different from that of adults. Workers in a hot spring area clean the source of the hot spring. Due to the high concentration of sulfur hydroxide, workers inhale many chemicals, resulting in hemorrhagic keratoconjunctivitis, aspiration pneumonia, and even death due to adult respiratory distress syndrome. Of course, most people don't inhale so much gas at once when they are in hot springs, but the tolerance of children is different from that of adults. A little chemicals may cause aspiration pneumonia, so it is still dangerous for children.
Healthy children over 3 years old can enjoy hot springs.
Children over 3 years old who are in good health can go to a hot spring. Of course, the time should not be too long. It's better not to spend more than 15 minutes in the water. Parents can let the children soak in the water for 15 minutes, then let the children play in the pool for a while, and then enter the bubble for 15 minutes. But no more than three times of bathing in hot spring water at a time. The younger the children are, the shorter the time they spend in hot springs. Too young children are not suitable for hot springs.
Which babies are not suitable for hot springs 1. Babies with severe eczema, dermatitis and festering skin wounds: Although sulfur and other acid-base substances contained in hot springs can be used for anti-inflammatory and sterilization, they are quite effective for general infectious or parasitic skin diseases. But some babies with severe eczema, dermatitis and festering skin will not only pollute the water quality, but also worsen the wound.
2. Baby suffering from heart disease: the hot spring has a high temperature, which can make the human body prone to sweating, rapid heartbeat, increased oxygen consumption of the heart, and easy to cause heart disease.
