The skin got black spots after being splashed with oil

It is inevitable that people will be splashed with oil when cooking. After being splashed with oil, the skin will generally become red and swollen quickly, or even blistered. At this time, you need to use a needle to prick it. But some people experience dark spots on their skin and pain after being splashed with oil. There are several ways to relieve the pain of an oil splash. So, what should you do if black spots appear on your skin due to oil splashes?

1. Wash with cool water

In fact, when you are splashed with hot oil, you can rinse it with cold water as soon as possible until you no longer feel the pain. This can better relieve the pain. It is best to use running water, the effect will be better.

2. Use ice packs

If the hot oil splashes severely and covers a large area, it will still hurt even if you rinse it with cold water. At this time, you can actually apply ice cubes to the area where the hot oil splashed.

You can wrap ice cubes in a towel and press them on the area where the hot oil bubbles appear, which will be better for relieving pain.

3. Egg protection

If hot oil splashes onto your skin, you can also use eggs to protect the wound. Take a fresh egg, clean it and wipe its surface with alcohol. Take out the egg membrane and stick it on the wound, preferably with the egg white side close to the wound.

In traditional Chinese medicine, people call egg membrane "phoenix coat". It contains more collagen and mucopolysaccharides. It has the properties of a biological semi-permeable membrane, can accelerate the formation of epithelial cells, and has the effect of anti-inflammatory and promoting skin growth. Especially fresh eggs, the egg membrane contains lysozyme, which can kill bacteria and is very helpful in preventing wounds from worsening.

4. Do not use soy sauce or sesame oil

In life, many people use folk remedies, such as applying soy sauce or sesame oil to the burned area, thinking that this can avoid blisters. This is actually unscientific. This is because there are actually a lot of bacteria in soy sauce and sesame oil, which can easily cause bacterial infection.

5. Apply ointment correctly

You can apply ointment after flushing the wound with running water. Of course, choose the ointment that suits you, as some ointments may cause allergic symptoms.

6. Don't open the wound

Sometimes, the wound is large, and some people will find that the wound is slowly healing after being bandaged, but they will break the wound. It is best not to do this because once the wound is broken, it is likely to cause new infection, which is very dangerous.

This is a description of what happens in life when hot oil splashes onto your hands while cooking. Although it may seem like an insignificant situation, it must attract everyone's attention. I hope everyone will treat this situation scientifically and avoid unnecessary situations.
