Children's skin is thinner than adults', so even a short contact with a hot object or liquid can cause deeper burns or affect a larger area of the skin, and the consequences can be more severe and recovery longer. Accordingly, you must react quickly to prevent complications.

Cats primarily inflict scratches or puncture wounds when they bite. After a cat bite or scratch, there is a possibility of developing various infections, which makes these injuries medically significant.

If you suspect that a child has heatstroke, call the emergency medical service (194) immediately or take him/her to hospital!

Sunstroke can occur if a child has been active and exposed to the sun for some time. The first symptoms can appear quickly, but "delayed" sunburn occurs more often, a few hours after being in the sun - in the evening before bedtime or during sleep.

Sunstroke is a violent reaction of the whole organism to excessive sun exposure, especially the head and neck.

Sunburn is very common in the summer months. In addition to momentary pain, it may have serious long-term consequences.

Hot water, heated objects or pyrotechnics are common causes of burns in children. However, the possibility of burns as a consequence of solar radiation should be kept in mind as well.

It is important to first identify the sting site and the type of insect, in order to determine whether to seek professional assistance at the nearest health facility or provide first aid yourself.
