Precautions for hot water bottle (safety, long-term)

1.Do not pour boiling water, preferably water at 80-90 degree . If the temperature is too high, it is easy to break, which will accelerate the aging of the rubber and shorten the service life. If the temperature is too high, the skin will be scalded if the hot water bottle is broken.

2.When the hot water is poured in, it will melt the rubber particles into the water. The rubber is poisonous. Never pour it into the kettle and boil it again. This will stick the poisonous rubber on the wall of the kettle. Feet are more dangerous. During the production process of hot water bottle, various compounding agents are added, such as anti-aging agent, vulcanizing agent, softening agent, reinforcing agent, filler, coloring agent, etc. With the aging of the hot water bottle and the soaking of hot water, these substances will precipitate from the rubber, so the water in the hot water bottle has an unpleasant smell. Because the water contains impurities and toxic substances, it has a certain stimulating effect on the skin, so you can only flush the toilet and water the flowers.

3.Don't fill it too much, just 2/3 of the hot water bottle, too full will easily break.

4.After entering a deep sleep, because the skin is not sensitive to temperature, it "sticks" to the hot water bottle for a long time and does not change its position. After waking up, blisters are found. The doctor said that such a burn is a "low temperature burn". According to the depth of skin burns, it is divided into first degree, superficial second degree, deep second degree, and third degree. The first degree and the second degree are superficial burns. Deep second and third degree burns are deep burns. What to do in the event of a "low temperature burn"? According to the doctor, first wash the scalded area with a cool towel or cold water to achieve the purpose of cooling down, and then seek medical attention in time. "Low-temperature scald" is different from scalds and burns caused by boiling water or open fire. The surface of low-temperature scald does not appear to be serious. The blisters that appear in the scald are not painful at first, but in fact it is a "third-degree scald". The epidermal cells of the skin and Epithelial cells have been chronically dehydrated and died, and this type of burn is more difficult to recover from than acute burns. Festering can occur if not handled properly, and some will not heal for a long time, so be extra careful when bathing. It is best to wrap the hot water bottle with a cloth for insulation, so that the hot water bottle does not directly touch the skin.

5.Squeeze out the air, there is no air for heat conduction to play the role of heating.

6.The hot water bottle should not be exposed to the sun to prevent the rubber from becoming hard, brittle and aging.

7.If it is not used for a long time, the plug should be removed and placed in a cool, dry place away from light.
