How Can You Comfort Your Child During the Healing Process?
Comforting your child involves both physical and emotional care. Reassure them that the injury will heal and that it is normal to feel some discomfort. You can also distract them with activities or toys to keep their mind off the injury. If the wound is painful, over-the-counter pain relievers like acetaminophen or ibuprofen can be used, following the dosage instructions for their age and weight.
