    Many people raise turtles on the balcony, and the turtle is easy to escape from the gap in the balcony railing by mistake, and there are falling injuries. There are also injuries caused by placing the turtle in a high place to bask in the sun, and the turtle's body moves, causing the center of gravity of the container to shift.

    **Method:

    If you fall on a higher floor, you should feed the turtle a sufficient amount of Yunnan Baiyao powder as soon as possible, and the dosage depends on the circumstances. The bleeding site of the trauma should be cleaned with normal saline in time (if it does not hurt the body, other liquid anti-inflammatory solutions can be used, such as: iodophor, iodine tincture, red syrup, purple syrup), and Yunnan Baiyao should be used to stop bleeding and converge the wound.

    Moreover, it is often accompanied by open injuries of tortoise shells, and if possible, it is necessary to use bioadhesive adhesives to protect these wounds in time, and we can generally use Yunnan Baiyao to spread the wound and then wrap it with gauze.

    <> Brazilian tortoise Many years ago, the Brazilian tortoise was also a very favorite pet of everyone, but now due to the flood of the market, the Brazilian tortoise is no longer so important in people's hearts, and there are not so many people who really raise Brazilian tortoises well.

    In most cases, Brazilian tortoises do not bite indiscriminately. However, if it mistakenly thinks that the finger it is feeding is food, it will also involuntarily bite it. Of course, a bite from a young Brazilian turtle is nothing, but if an adult Brazilian turtle bites it, it may also be bloody.

    If you are unfortunate enough to be bitten by a Brazilian turtle, the bitten person should not panic, first quickly put the Brazilian turtle and his own hand into the water, and then plug the Brazilian turtle's nose with the other hand. After a while it will loosen its mouth, and the keeper can quickly pull the bitten finger out of the water.

    Since the Brazilian turtle carries a certain germ, the bite wound must be disinfected in time. It is necessary to clean the wound in time, and then wipe some iodine wine to sterilize and disinfect. Generally, you do not need to be vaccinated against rabies if you are bitten by a Brazilian turtle, but if the bite is severe, there is also a problem with the physical health of the Brazilian turtle.

    Then the bitten person can still go to the hospital for relevant examinations, and then listen to the doctor's advice to inject vaccines to ensure their life and health.
