Design Study of Adjuvant Treatment and Prevention of Chilblain in Children with Ginger
Brunel Design School, Brunel University London, London UB83PH, UK
In rural areas of central and Western China, chilblain is a common seasonal skin disease among local children. Its symptoms are mainly skin redness, itching, peeling and even ulceration, which has a negative impact on children's body and psychology. Due to the lack of attention and scientific cognition on the treatment and prevention of chilblain, children with chilblain are prone to serious symptoms and have a high probability of recurrence. This study conducted field investigation and user visits, earnestly considered the multiple needs and scientific basis of users. This study combined with the different characteristics of treatment and prevention and redesigned the primary methods of chilblain disease treatment and the acceptability of various schemes for children in the initial stage of chilblain prevention and treatment. Using the local traditional methods and natural materials, this design tests and improves the treatment methods of local ginger soup and ginger juice smearing. Through the test of children's preferences, the application methods of ointment and the redesign of medicine bottles that can be accepted and used by children are added in the traditional treatment stage, as to design and produce new forms and carriers for chilblain treatment for children, more loved and accepted by children.
