Drowning self-rescue knowledge 1. First of all, you should stay calm and never kick around with your hands and feet to struggle desperately. This can reduce the entanglement of water plants and save energy. As long as you don\’t struggle wildly and don\’t raise your arms and flutter around, the human body will not lose balance in the water, so the body will not sink quickly. 2. In addition to calling for help, immediately hold your breath after falling into the water, kick off your shoes, and then relax your limbs. When you feel that you start to float, stay in a supine position as much as possible and tilt your head back so that your nose can be exposed to the water to breathe. When breathing, try to inhale through your mouth and exhale through your nose to prevent choking on water. 3. Never try to put your entire head out of the water. This will be a fatal mistake, because it is impossible for people who cannot swim to put their heads out of the water. This inevitable failure will cause them to fall into the water. The person becomes more nervous and passive, thus making the whole self-rescuer fall short.4. When a rescuer appears, as long as the drowning person still has reason, he must not panic and grab the rescuer\’s hands, legs, waist, etc. He must obey the rescuer\’s instructions and let him swim ashore with you. Otherwise, not only will you not be rescued, but the life of the rescuer will be affected. 5. For those who know how to swim, if calf cramps occur, they should stay calm, adopt a backstroke position, and bend the toes of the cramped leg dorsally with your hands to relax the cramps, and then slowly swim to the shore.

Use the hand on the opposite side of the cramped limb to hold the toes of the cramped limb and pull it toward the body. At the same time, use the palm of the same side to press the knee of the cramped limb to help straighten the cramped leg; (3) If the thigh is cramped, The same method can be used to lengthen the cramped muscles.
