What to do when bitten by a snake bite
Keep the bitten area still. You can immobilize the area with an improvised splint made from a board or other stiff material tied to the limb. Don't tie it too tight---you don't want to reduce blood flow. Keep the area of the snake bite lower than the heart. DO NOT cut open the wound and try to suck out the venom. DO NOT put ice on the bitten area. Remove constricting clothing or other objects from the extremity. The area may swell and constricting items will cause tissue death. The only way to truly cure a rattle snake bite, is to treat it with antivenin/antivenom.
1. Place a tourniquet between the bite and the heart. Loosen it every 15 minutes.2. Get victim to doctor immediately for an antivenin shot.3. If you are in an isolated area where no doctor is available, give the shot to yourself.Keep the victim as still as possible.Moving around spreads the poison through the body faster Have the victim lie down quietly.Do NOT give stimulants (Coffee, whiskey, any alcoholic drink.) They also spread the poison faster.Get medical help as quickly as you can.If there is no phone to call for help, carry the victim to the nearest phone or doctor.Edit: Sorry - I disagree with the use of a tourniquet. An incorrectly applied one is dangerous and can lead to gangrene in the affected limb. It also depends on what type of venom has been injected as to the effectiveness of the tourniquet. The better solution would be a pressure bandage over the bite area. Additionally - the bite area should be lower than the heart- to slow the spread of the venom through the circulatory system. Placing the patient in a sitting position will do this better than lying the patient down. Snakester1962 (Supervisor)
Abraham Lincoln said this in response to a young army officer who was in a sharp argument with a fellow soldier. Lincoln was trying to tell this officer to choose his battles..."Better give your path to a dog than be bitten by him in contesting the right." Winning an argument ("killing the dog") will not heal the wounds ("cure the bite") that it can cause.
Probably yes. Here in the Philippines, people sell it and used as a talisman or some sort of spiritual immunity. Typically, in the US it is used as a reference to the traveling salesmen of the 19th century and early 20th century who bottled pretty much anything to sell as a cure-all for everything from the common cold to cancer.
Sadly there is no cure. Chop the tree down and replace it with a different type of tree.
If you want to cure the fighting cocks flu, you are need to get an antibiotic. This flu is common in the Philippines.
No, it doesn't cure the snake bite. It does, however, reduce the amount of venom flowing through the victim's body. The only cure - is to get to a hospital for treatment with anti-venin.
suck it out with his mouth then listen to acdc
It depends. If it is poison by a snake or a bite you or someone else can suck the poison out of that area through where the animal bit.
Go directly to the hospital for antivenin injections.
Yes - if it's a venomous species that caused the bite. You'd need the correct anti-venin treatment.
you will die
In the Exodus, Moses makes a copper snake which the Jews were supposed to look at and then not die of a snake bite. Seemed to be a psychological medicine, a placebo effecting procedure. After the Bible, someone destroyed some medical book because people were using it to poison people instead of to cure them.
If someone got bitten by a venomous snake, another pioneer would take a knife and cut an "x" at the bite location. They would then suck out the blood and hopefully the poison. Sometimes this worked and sometimes this didn't. If it didn't work the victim would most likely die. If they happen to be lucky enough to survive, the body part that was bitten would normally have to be amputated. If they were bitten on their core, death was almost certain.
