Low-temperature scald from a hot water bottle refers to a scald caused by prolonged contact with a heat source that is not too hot. Note: The heat sources such as hot water bottle and warm baby will not feel hot to the touch, but will only feel very warm. However, prolonged contact can cause damage to the skin and subcutaneous tissue. Studies have shown that if the heat source temperature exceeds 44 ℃, it may cause low temperature burns. Exposure to a heat source at 70°C for more than one minute and a heat source at about 60°C for more than five minutes may also cause burns. The heating temperature of the warm baby can exceed 60 ℃, the working temperature of the electric hot water bottle is above 70 ℃, and the surface temperature of the hot water bottle filled with boiling water is even more than 80 ℃, which may cause low temperature burns.

People with insensitive or abnormal skin sensation, such as the elderly, children, diabetic patients with neuropathy and stroke, should not blindly apply hot compresses. If you need a hot compress, you must pay attention to controlling the temperature of the hot water bottle, otherwise it will be easy to burn. If the skin has ulceration or skin disease, it is necessary to avoid hot compresses on the surface of the skin lesions to prevent infection or irritation of the skin disease and aggravate symptoms. In addition, in the early stage of acute soft tissue injuries such as sprains and strains, there is blood stasis under the skin, and hot compresses should not be used within 24-48 hours of using a hot water bottle, otherwise local swelling will be aggravated. Hot compresses are mainly for cold symptoms, so patients with warm symptoms should not apply hot compresses. This group of people often shows that they are easy to get angry, especially afraid of heat, or accompanied by bad breath, constipation, and women also have menorrhagia and so on.

The temperature of the hot compress of the hot water bottle should not be too high, usually 40-50 degrees Celsius, and the hot compress is about 20 minutes. If applying heat to delicate areas of skin, the temperature needs to be lower. At the same time, it is necessary to avoid fixing hot compresses on one part for a long time, otherwise it is easy to cause burns. The most common one is the improper use of hot water bottles to cause skin burns.
