Chapter 203: She's Still So Young

Camp.

The herbs for prickly heat have been plucked, and these herbs are not taken internally, but are used to boil water for bathing.

The effect of the medicine is not very mild, and the skin of a half-year-old child is very delicate, so I have to dilute the potion several times.

"I think it's okay. ”

Looking at the pale green basin of water, Su Ye stretched out his hand and paddled in the water, and the water temperature was just right.

"You think it's okay? That doesn't sound very reliable!"

Nie Chunxian deeply suspected that this potion would make Yaoyao even more uncomfortable.

"It's been diluted three times, and it's almost water. ”

I even suspected that the effect was not enough, and I considered whether to add a little more herbs.

In the end, it was after Su Jing nodded, Chen Xinyi and Nie Chunxian put Yaoyao in the wooden basin.

"What are you doing here? Girls look good in the shower?"

Su Jing's face blocked my sight unkindly, I just wanted to see Yaoyao's reaction......

"She's still so young, what's wrong?"

"Get out!"

“......”

The next morning.

The first thing I did when I woke up was to see if the prickly heat on Yaoyao's body had dissipated.

But it backfired, not only did the prickly heat on Yaoyao's body not go down, but even Chen Xinyi and Nie Chunxian also had red spots.

"What's going on? Prickly heat is contagious?"

Soon, not only Nie Chunxian and Chen Xinyi, but also Xiao Qian, they were in chaos in the camp for a while.

Even I felt some itching on my inner thighs, and when I looked at it, I noticed that there were many small red spots.

"When did you start to feel itchy, and was it the inner thighs that first itched?"

Su Jing summoned everyone with a serious face to ask clearly.

"yes! I've been itching since last night. ”

"So it's not prickly heat, it's contagious scabies, and now this season is the time when scabies is rampant. ”

"Scabies?"

Su Ye's face changed slightly after hearing this, he had heard of and seen this skin infectious disease.

Scabies, also known as dry sores, is a skin disease caused by scabies.

Scabies is active at night, so the itching sensation during the day is not strong, and once it is night, it will be difficult for you to fall asleep.

"Try to be patient and not scratch, otherwise it will get worse and worse!"

"Doctor Su, is there a way to treat it?"

Su Jing nodded and said, "The most effective way to treat scabies is to use sulfur ointment, but now other medicinal materials can be found, but this sulfur is the only one that can't be found." ”

They hadn't seen any sulphur since they came to the island, which meant there was no way to treat it......

This skin disease doesn't kill you, but it does make you itch and hurt, and it's just that the first attacks aren't too serious.

"What then?"

"Just endure it?"

"How uncomfortable is that?"

“......”

The disease must be controlled before a solution is found, and the infection cannot continue to be transmitted.

Yue Qianrou came with the news that several people on their side also had scabies.

Tuoba Yu ordered these people to be isolated as soon as possible, and the clothes and quilts they touched had to be boiled in boiling water.

The house was also smoked with mugwort.

At night, everyone itches uncomfortably but dare not scratch it, and they definitely can't sleep.

Adults have strong resistance and good endurance, but a few children can't do it, crying all night, and crying silently in the back......

Chen Xinyi saw Yaoyao's eyes red from crying, and her heart was so uncomfortable that she was going to die.

"What the hell have we done!"

My heart is not good either.

In the past, my junior high school classmates had this skin disease, but it was not too strong in winter, and now it is summer, and the dry climate is the most uncomfortable.

Nie Chunxian seemed to have thought of something.

"Su Ye, do you remember the hot spring we found before?"

"Of course I do, but when is this still thinking about hot springs? ”

Hot water can make itching worse, and cold or ice water can also suppress scabies activity and reduce pain.

Nie Chunxian shook his head and said, "Didn't you find a particularly hot spring at the beginning, and it smelled like sulfur." ”

Su Ye was stunned for a moment, and thought about it carefully, if it weren't for Nie Chunxian reminding him that he would have forgotten about it.

If it does smell of sulfur, it means that you can find sulfur near the hot springs, and you can even find sulfur hot springs with the right water temperature.

Sulfur is the nemesis of scabies, and if you soak in the sulfur hot springs for a few hours, you will definitely be able to kill the scabies on your body.

Hopefully, everyone is excited, but I can't guarantee that I will find a sulfur hot spring, so I plan to take someone to check the situation first, and if I can't find a suitable sulfur hot spring, I will find a way to dig some sulfur back.

The hot springs are in the western part of the island, where tigers are infested.

Nie Chunxian and I had encountered tigers there before, and I don't know if there are any other tigers, so we have to be very careful.

Fortunately, I didn't encounter a tiger this time.

We also found a sulfur hot spring with the right temperature, and I jumped right into it.

"It's so much more comfortable. ”

After jumping into the sulfur hot springs, the itchy feeling was instantly relieved.

However, it will take a few days to completely kill all the scabies on the body.

After an hour of soaking, we searched for sulfur nearby, and there was sulfur wherever the hot spring water flowed, but there was very little sulfur, and a lot of sulfur should be underground.

Camp.

"How's it going? Did you find a sulfur hot spring?"

Seeing that Su Ye was back, Nie Chunxian couldn't wait to come up and ask what was going on.

"Found it, and I came back with some sulfur to dispense the medicine. ”

There are several home remedies for scabies, but the one I use now is the simplest and most practical.

There are only three kinds of ingredients, lard, sulfur powder, and pepper.

Mix the three things in a certain proportion and stir them into a paste, and use it to apply it to the entire area below the neck for about seven to ten days to completely kill the scabies mites.

The ointment was prepared quickly, and everyone was ready to start taking it that evening.

"Does it hurt to apply this medicine to the affected area?"

Nie Chunxian was a little afraid of this.

"No, I barely feel it, if I want to say that it feels a little hot. ”

With Su Ye's guarantee, the two daughters began to rub the medicine.

Yaoyao is still young, and the medicine used is specially prepared, and the proportion of sulfur powder added is small.

"Well, don't move. ”

Because of the itching on her body, Yaoyao was always moving, and she didn't settle down until she finished wiping the medicine.

"I smell of sulfur now, when can I take a bath?"

"At least a week later, I have to wash it again, and tomorrow I will boil all the quilts, clothes, dishes, chopsticks and other things that I have touched with boiling water. ”

Since it was not known where the source of infection was, the camp had to be completely insecticide.

"The ointment is enough for everyone to use for ten days. ”

Su Jing was tired enough to prepare the ointment, but fortunately, the infectious disease that broke out this time was not a major disease.
