Teething. Medical care for a child

Fundamentals of First Aid (OPMP)

The gums swell a little and itch a lot. On the background teething the temperature may rise, diarrhea may appear.

How to alleviate the condition of the child

Wrap three layers of gauze moistened with a solution of soda or borax (1 teaspoon per glass of water) around your finger. Wipe the child's gums several times a day.

Give your child a special healing ring made from orris root for teething (they are sold in pharmacies).

Let your child chew on dry biscuits or a crust of bread.

Before going to bed, give your child 1 teaspoon of honey (if there is no allergy). This will calm the baby and make it easier to fall asleep.

Folk remedy

Put a thread of real yellow amber around the child's neck.

Toothache

In case of toothache, it is necessary to show the child to the dentist. Most likely, the cause of the pain is tooth decay, which requires treatment.

First aid at home

If the pain is paroxysmal, the tooth hurts from hot, and it goes away from the cold, then you need to rinse your mouth with cold salt solution (1 teaspoon without top in a glass of water). The child should take water in his mouth and keep it on the aching tooth for 20-30 seconds. All solution must be used. This procedure helps relieve inflammation.

If the pain is aching and constant, then give the child a hot rinse with the same proportion of salt. You need to rinse in the same way, holding the solution on the tooth. The pain will subside and pass.

Give your child a hot footbath in which he can also dip his hands. Heat on the hands and feet will help reduce and even relieve pain.

Folk remedy

Crush a clove of garlic, wrap it in a thin layer of gauze and tie it to the wrist of the opposite hand at the point of pulsation.

A New Way to Control and Manipulate Optical Signals 05.05.2024

The modern world of science and technology is developing rapidly, and every day new methods and technologies appear that open up new prospects for us in various fields. One such innovation is the development by German scientists of a new way to control optical signals, which could lead to significant progress in the field of photonics. Recent research has allowed German scientists to create a tunable waveplate inside a fused silica waveguide. This method, based on the use of a liquid crystal layer, allows one to effectively change the polarization of light passing through a waveguide. This technological breakthrough opens up new prospects for the development of compact and efficient photonic devices capable of processing large volumes of data. The electro-optical control of polarization provided by the new method could provide the basis for a new class of integrated photonic devices. This opens up great opportunities for ... >>

Primium Seneca keyboard 05.05.2024

Keyboards are an integral part of our daily computer work. However, one of the main problems that users face is noise, especially in the case of premium models. But with the new Seneca keyboard from Norbauer & Co, that may change. Seneca is not just a keyboard, it is the result of five years of development work to create the ideal device. Every aspect of this keyboard, from acoustic properties to mechanical characteristics, has been carefully considered and balanced. One of the key features of Seneca is its silent stabilizers, which solve the noise problem common to many keyboards. In addition, the keyboard supports various key widths, making it convenient for any user. Although Seneca is not yet available for purchase, it is scheduled for release in late summer. Norbauer & Co's Seneca represents new standards in keyboard design. Her ... >>

The world's tallest astronomical observatory opened 04.05.2024

Exploring space and its mysteries is a task that attracts the attention of astronomers from all over the world. In the fresh air of the high mountains, far from city light pollution, the stars and planets reveal their secrets with greater clarity. A new page is opening in the history of astronomy with the opening of the world's highest astronomical observatory - the Atacama Observatory of the University of Tokyo. The Atacama Observatory, located at an altitude of 5640 meters above sea level, opens up new opportunities for astronomers in the study of space. This site has become the highest location for a ground-based telescope, providing researchers with a unique tool for studying infrared waves in the Universe. Although the high altitude location provides clearer skies and less interference from the atmosphere, building an observatory on a high mountain poses enormous difficulties and challenges. However, despite the difficulties, the new observatory opens up broad research prospects for astronomers. ... >>

Foam alternative 23.02.2021

Thermoboxes for food, cooler bags for soft drinks, isothermal containers for transporting medicines - all these and similar containers are made of materials that do not allow the products placed in them to change their initial temperature. And most often, polymers such as polystyrene foam and expanded polystyrene (styrofoam) are used as insulation.

A lot speaks in their favor: they have good thermal insulation properties, weigh very little, are highly durable, and withstand heavy loads. But all these advantages are covered by a significant drawback: expanded polystyrene and polystyrene are not biodegradable, and their waste, which can decompose into thousands of small particles, greatly pollutes the environment. Scientists at the Institute for Natural Materials Processing Technology at the Technical University of Dresden have come up with an alternative to them by creating a biodegradable insulation material from ... waste paper.

Scientists subjected scrap paper to special drying. This process resulted in the formation of fibrous-based insulating elements. The task of the researchers was to regulate the process of preparatory processing of raw materials and develop special formulations of fibrous materials - so that, as a result, the fibrous mats that form the basis of the insulating material had a very low density with a fairly close distribution of pores in size.

In this way, an optimum quality level of the insulating material was achieved. In general, a lot speaks in favor of cellulose, on the basis of which paper is made. In particular, it is durable and has a very low thermal conductivity. This means that the environmentally friendly fiber mats developed by Dresden scientists are superior in their properties to many other insulating materials - including polymers such as polystyrene foam and expanded polystyrene.

The quality of the insulating material made from recycled materials is so high that the containers in which it is integrated can be used even for transporting food. In addition, according to the Dresden scientists, the packaging they have developed is a completely recyclable product. Yes, the new insulation material is not entirely recycled paper. It also has a layer of polyethylene film. However, since its share is negligible - it is only 7 percent - the packaging can be disposed of as waste paper after use.
