What would you do if you cut your finger when you are cutting vegetables? How would you do if you meet the sunburns? Small accidents happen every day, and most can be treated at home. But to make them better quickly, you need to know what to do. Here are some first-aid (急救) suggestions of troubles in our daily life.

Cuts

First, wash up your hands with soap and water so you don’t get dirty things into the cut and cause other problems. Then, try to stop the bleeding. Next, you should clean the wound (伤口). Finally, put some medicine on it.

Nosebleeds

Nosebleeds usually look a lot worse than they are. Just follow a few simple steps: Put your head back so the blood don’t run down to your throat and hold the nose for at least five minutes with a tissue (纸巾).

Animal bites(咬伤)

Sometimes a friendly dog or cat can bite. If you or your friend gets a bite, please remember: clean it under running water and cover it with a clean bandage or gauze (纱布) patch. You need to go to see the doctor quickly to see if the animal has other diseases.

Sunburns

Don’t stay at the places with sunshine for too long in hot days. When you find your skin become red in summer, you should use some cold water to wash yourself and also use some ice. Besides, putting some ointments (药膏) on it may be helpful.
