Patient's question:
The plaster on my body has a strong smell. Does holding a four-month-old baby every day affect him? The baby also has a smell of plaster. Will he absorb it through the skin or cause skin damage?Doctor's answer:
The smell of plaster is generally never a problem for children. It's best not to smell it for a long time. During the period when the plaster is applied, you can let the child be held more by other family members. Once the body odor is not as strong, it's also okay to hold the child. Don't worry. As long as you pay attention to indoor ventilation, prevent the child from coming into contact with the plaster, and avoid irritating the child's skin, everything will be fine. Don't let the child touch anything related to medicine.
