@drjen_kc: Hair tourniquet syndrome occurs when a strand of hair or thread wraps tightly around a body part such as the fingers, toes, or private area in males. Even though it happens in less than one percent it’s important to check your baby regularly. Especially as the spring and summer months approach and the warmer weather leads to bare foot babies! Although it’s rare, it can turn into an emergency very quick if not removed appropriately. Symptoms: Baby crying inconsolably Baby pulling at hand or foot Baby waving hand or foot excessively Redness and swelling around a joint with visible construction Sensitivity to touch #prdiatrics #pedsemergency #pediatricemergency #hairtourniquet #babyemergency #baby #MomsofTikTok #babyhealthtip #parentsoftiktok #parentpsa #babypsa #emergency #kidsoftiktok #kidemergency #viralvideo
