Entanglement: Can Cassia Sand Pool Let Baby Play?

Many indoor children's playgrounds have cassia sand pools, which children like very much. Many parents think that cassia seed is healthier, cleaner and safer than sand, but some netizens said that it is more dangerous for cassia seed to enter the ear canal and nasal cavity under general anesthesia. What do experts think of these two attitudes? Cassia seed sand pool energy ...

"The Daming bunker in the indoor children's playground is very deceptive! It is easy to cause foreign bodies in the ear canal and nasal cavity. Sand can be taken out, but plant foreign bodies must be taken out under general anesthesia. I saw two cases in just two weeks! Cherish life and stay away from the Dingming bunker. " Recently, a warning message was widely spread in Weibo and WeChat circle of friends, which attracted everyone's attention. Many parents expressed concern, and some netizens thought it was alarmist. Why is this news so concerned and controversial? How should we treat the Dingming bunker in the future?

What is a decisive bunker?

At present, the Dingming bunker is very popular in China. It not only appears in some children's playgrounds in public places, but also some parents buy their own "Cassia Sand Pool" or put it in bathtubs and inflatable swimming pools as family amusement facilities for their children to play with. Search on Taobao shows that many stores sell cassia seeds in bulk.

Why is the Dingming Bunker so popular with everyone? The exaggerated propaganda of the merchants is absolutely indispensable. Parents have been indoctrinated with the idea that "Cassia seed is cleaner, safer and healthier than sand", thinking that Cassia seed is not as easy to produce dust as sand, nor will it cause conjunctivitis, and even let children "clear their eyes, relax their bowels and keep fit" when playing. However, are the opinions of parents or the propaganda of businesses really correct?

Really cleaner?

First of all, on the surface, cassia seed is really what parents think, and cassia seed is cleaner than sand. However, what is not known to everyone is that our invisible bacteria and microorganisms also prefer cassia seed. As the seed of herbaceous plants, cassia seed is rich in nutrients, which can provide conditions for the growth of bacteria and microorganisms. However, if ordinary sand can be cleaned in time, bacteria and microorganisms generally cannot survive on sand. Therefore, after being used by many people for a long time, cassia seed may be infected with germs, but the sand is relatively "clean".

Is it really safer?

Let's compare the security of the two. Is cassia seed really as safe as parents think? The warning message at the beginning of the text "can easily lead to foreign bodies in the ear canal and nasal cavity." Sand can be taken out, but plant foreign bodies must be taken out under general anesthesia. " It reminds us that cassia seed does not enter the eyes as easily as sand, but we can't ignore that it can enter the ear canal and nasal cavity.

Sand particles are very small, and most of them can be excreted by cerumen secretion, nasal mucus secretion or water washing. Cassia seed used to play with sand is generally raw and belongs to live seeds. If it accidentally enters the ear canal or nasal cavity, it may swell up in a humid and warm environment, and the child's ear canal and nasal cavity are very narrow, so it is easy to get stuck inside, which is more troublesome than sand.

Is it really healthier?

As for whether Cassia seed is really as healthy as it is supposed to be, merchants widely tell it: Cassia seed is a good Chinese herbal medicine, which has the effects of relaxing bowels, clearing away heat and improving eyesight. Parents don't have to worry about their children eating cassia seed. Children often play in cassia seed bunkers, which can not only delight their souls, but also improve their health and eyesight.

However, is the Dingming Bunker really as magical as advertised? Obviously, the answer isno. Cassia seed does have the effect of relaxing bowels, clearing liver and improving eyesight, but children can't stay and play in it every day. The medicinal effect of Cassia seed is mainly achieved by soaking in water. It won't be so magical just to stay in the bunker for an hour or two.

Look at it rationally and play with caution.

From this point of view, cassia seed is not as clean, safe and healthy as everyone thinks. Is it really necessary to stay away from it or even be banned by the Jedi?

In fact, from the field investigation of children's paradise, it can be found that the frequency of trachoma blindness is much higher than that of cassia seed mistakenly entering the ear and nose. Therefore, cassia seed is not "easy to cause foreign bodies in ear canal and nasal cavity". Furthermore, regarding the statement that "it must be taken out under general anesthesia", if the child cries and moves when Cassia seed enters the ear nostril, and does not cooperate with the treatment, the doctor can only choose to take it out after general anesthesia. However, if the child is more cooperative and the posture is easier to operate, it can be taken out directly with tools, or even changed to * * *, and it is not necessary to take it out under general anesthesia.

It can be seen that parents should treat Cassia Bunker rationally. Children under 3 years old are advised not to play as much as possible, while other children need to play with their parents. In addition, special attention should be paid to observation. If the child has obvious abnormal movements such as picking, rubbing, scratching or other uncomfortable performances, it should be highly suspected that foreign bodies have entered the ear and nose department. At this time, remember not to try to take them out yourself to prevent external auditory canal bleeding or even other adverse consequences. Take the child to the hospital in time.
