Dream - For fathers and mothers who have baby girls, there is one ritual that is usually done, which is piercing the ears. Some get pierced when they are newborns, but there are also those who wait until the child is older and can decide for themselves.
Whenever it is time, make sure the piercing is well taken care of to prevent infection and problems in the future. Piercing on newborn babies or when they are 3 months old is usually done by a pediatrician or midwife.
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, it is advisable to have a child pierced at the age of 2 years, because at this time the child has already received complete vaccinations.
After being pierced, usually the little one feels uncomfortable. Therefore, it is important to do home care to reduce the pain after being pierced and to help the piercing wounds heal quickly. How to do it? According to Dr. Arina Heidyana from Klikdokter.com, after being pierced, it is important to clean the earrings once or twice a week.
The way to do it is by slowly removing the earring from the child's ear, then clean it with alcohol or disinfectant solution. You can also use cotton or a cotton bud as a tool to clean it.
Make sure to also check the cleanliness of the little one's ears. Clean the baby's ears regularly. Use special baby soap or antibacterial soap applied to a cotton bud.
With the cotton bud, clean the pierced part of the ear. After that, rinse with clean water and dry it with a soft towel until completely dry. Do this routine habit, so that the baby's ear will not get infected.
Immediately remove the baby's earrings if the ears appear red, crusty, or swollen. It is possible that the child is allergic to the material used for the earrings.
