If inadvertently bitten by a snake, not scared the life out of, we should first determine whether to snakebites.

  Usually wound with two larger and deeper teeth marks can judge for snakebites.

If conditions before sending it to the hospital tetanus vaccination needles can be.

  Snakebite was highly toxic to the main symptoms : the case of hemorrhagic Venom : wound burning, and the proliferation of local swelling, wound around a purpura, silt grouper, blisters, Muddy blood from the wound exudate, or tissue necrosis of the skin, fever, nausea, vomiting, QiQiao bleeding. A sputum, hematuria, blood pressure lowering, Miosis, such as cramping. Victims after 6 -48 hours may lead to the injured died.

Dagger put on the fire burned a burning, consumer disinfection, and then traces defanged by the direction of the longitudinal skin incision. the best marks of the two link up defanged. Squeeze dual use force, which could promote lymph outflows, are excluded from the venom. However, the cut in the not too deep, to avoid hurting physically. Some people think this is too bad, can not stand. However, in the venom of a crisis moment, in so doing, it is essential.

  5, in addition to the above do not have under the circumstances, can also blow drug. But they should not suck caries, oral not damaged, ulcers degree. After the gully to spit it out as soon as possible, and Shu oral net. If oral wounds within, it can not be drugs, in order to prevent their venom has been infected.

  6, the above method only emergency, if toxicity is a small snake bite can be basically intact, the theater was injured by poisonous snakes, may also gain time, poisoning also needs to take tablets and solution venom spread venom powder, So must send a nearby hospital for treatment.
