If a child has a chemical burn, when splashing water on the child, take care not to let the water spread chemicals to the non-scalded part.

After the burn has cooled, cover the area with a clean gauze or clean towel (without ruffling) to keep the wound clean and avoid breaking any water burns (if any).

If your child is unconscious, check that your baby is still breathing.



If the child stops breathing, perform artificial respiration but place a thin cloth over his mouth and breathe through the cloth to prevent himself from becoming contaminated with toxins from the baby's mouth. Do not try to make a child vomit.
If the child is poisoned to the eyes, a warm pitcher of 10 cm high can be used to gently flush the eye continuously for 15 minutes. If a child burns around the mouth due to ingestion of chemicals, clean skin and lips should be washed for him.
