Usually, jellyfish stings will hurt, but are not emergencies. Most cause pain, red marks, itching, numbness, or tingling. But a few types of jellyfish (mainly found in Australia, the Philippines, the Indian ocean, and central Pacific Ocean) are very dangerous, and can cause people to get very sick quickly.
