There is a special leave for snake bite, the same leave is used for dog bite too. Secondly, tide the regon, cut it to bleed out the poison then chew some slice of onions to protect your heart from the venom infection. 2 Likes

dawnomike: None of this actually works bro...it's best to immobilise the leg than tieing it, sucking venom from leg doesn't work..plus technically u can't suck it...as for onions? C'mon onions?. Best thing to do is immobilise d leg,reduce movement in the leg at all cost..the venom's 'movement' is greatly reduced this way 8 Likes 1 Share |

dawnomike: Don't ever do these. The only thing you can do is rush to the nearest hospital even if its in another state. And also pray that the snake isnt a cobra cos you have less than an hour to live. Most viper have hemotoxic venoms that have slow symptoms, so you still have 3 hours to 24 hours or more to get to the hospital. 16 Likes 1 Share |

dawnomike:did I just read "suck out"? Please don't try this deadly act...not all venoms find the bloodstream, the venom of a viper eats away the tissue....sucking it out is a death sentence already! 15 Likes 1 Share |

dawnomike: Immobilise ur leg,make sure u know the type of snake..den go to a hospital. Thing is if the snake is venomous(depending on the snake sha),your life is literally dependent on time whether u immobilise or not. Just get to an hospital in 30mins at most( if venomous) 4 Likes |

Tpave: You don't need any first aid, rush to hospital immediately after a snake bite. Just take note of how the snake looks if you were unable to kill it. |

1. Note the Snake's Appearance Be ready to describe the snake to emergency staff. 2. Protect the Person While waiting for medical help: Move the person beyond striking distance of the snake. Have the person lie down with wound below the heart. Keep the person calm and at rest, remaining as still as possible to keep venom from spreading. Cover the wound with loose, sterile bandage. Remove any jewelry from the area that was bitten. Remove shoes if the leg or foot was bitten. Do not: Cut a bite wound Attempt to suck out venom Apply tourniquet, ice, or water Give the person alcohol or caffeinated drinks or any other medications 3. Follow Up If you treat the bite at home: Contact a health care provider. The person may need a tetanus shot. Tetanus boosters should be given every 10 years. At the hospital, treatment will depend on the type of snake. If the snake was venomous, the person will be given anti-venom treatment. A tetanus shot may be given, depending on date of last injection. https://www.webmd.com/first-aid/snakebite-treatment 14 Likes 2 Shares |
