If bitten by a snake

Symptoms:

There may be no pain at the site of the bite, but there may be pain if the wound is swollen or rotten.

The patient may feel drowsy and feel weak.

Paralysis or paralysis may occur.

Paralysis of the eye muscles and eyeball muscles causes the patient's eyelids to become heavy, the eyes to blink, the eyes to blur

Tongue tingling, difficulty speaking, numbness of jaw and palate, difficulty swallowing, difficulty walking, numbness of limbs, and even muscle numbness. The patient may turn blue due to difficulty in breathing.

First aid:

The patient needs to be reassured Most patients think death is inevitable Therefore, if the patient is given courage on an emergency basis and sent to the appropriate place / hospital for treatment with first aid, the patient will regain his faith and courage.

The bitten place should not be cut at all Wounds should be wiped with a damp cloth or antiseptic lotion.

Apply a knot with a towel or cloth (knot on the leg when biting the leg, knot on the elbow when biting the hand) in such a way that nothing is too tight or loose (it is said that a finger can penetrate with a little effort). .

The snake bite area cannot be moved much because the venom spreads quickly in the body when the muscles contract.

The patient should be rushed to the hospital and the patient should not be allowed to walk The patient should be taken to the hospital on the shoulder, cot or cradle (If possible, take it with you to determine if the dead snake is a species or poisonous ৷ be careful! Make sure the snake is dead ৷ because the snake can pretend to be dead and then bite again).

If there are no urgent symptoms, the bite site should be examined for ‘signs of poisoning’ Poisoned tooth stains can be seen as a mark of two piercings about half an inch apart or just as a scratch. If there are clear signs of two poisonous teeth, the snake is most likely poisonous, but if there are no signs of poisonous teeth, it cannot be said that the snake is not poisonous.

There may be skin discoloration, darkening, swelling, blistering, putrefaction, etc. at the site of the bite - there may be no change. Again, changes may occur as a result of initial treatment.
