@drjoe_md: A hair tourniquet occurs when a strand of hair becomes tightly wrapped around an extremity, such as a finger or toe, or around genitalia, leading to circulatory compromise and potential tissue necrosis. It is most commonly seen in infants and young children with long-haired caregivers. Prompt recognition and removal of the hair are crucial for preventing complications like infection or loss of the affected appendage. Surgical intervention may be necessary if the hair is tightly embedded. Vid @Tiny Hearts #hairtourniquet #firsttimemom #newbaby #newparents #babyhacks #pediatrics #healthybaby

This was a big fear of mine because my brother had a hair wrapped around a "more more sensative finger". when he was a baby. 😬

This happened to my baby years ago from a thread in the toe of her onesie. I tell all new moms to turn onesies inside out & cut loose threads.
