- Rest and put ice on the bump.
- If you feel very dizzy, tell an adult.
- Poisoning:
- Eating or drinking something harmful, like certain plants or chemicals.
- If you think someone has been poisoned, call for help right away.
- Choking:
- When food or an object gets stuck in your throat, it can be hard to breathe.
- If someone is choking, ask for help and do the Heimlich maneuver if trained.
- Electric Shocks:
- When you touch something with electricity, like a broken wire, you can get shocked.
- Move away from the source of electricity.
- Call for help if needed.
- Allergic Reactions:
- Some people are allergic to foods, animals, or plants.
