Guess your a dummy!

Your instinct should tell you I wasn’t drinking it for refreshment! I drank it then to cure some certain things!

1 - Tightly tie the upper region and lower region of the bite wit a rope to reduce the venom flow into the blood stream...

2 - Cut open the bite areawit a knife or blade and try to such out d venom

3 - place a cut of onions on d region.

NB: Do all d above while rushing the victim to the hospital

What's the work of the onion, just a question thanks

Urine do slow down the reaction or drink green bottle of beer d alcohol inside it also quench d poison.

When an hausa man was digging the well of my father house then,a snake bit him inside. He first killed the snake,brought it to the surface,went inside the bush beside the site and cut some leaves. He applied it and drank out of it. Suprisingly he went back inside the well. Anytime i remember that day i blame myself for not asking for the name of that leaf

Bitter kola can kill the venom...

Did this nigga mentioned isi ala ngwa North where I'm the king.

Nature has provided all we need but ignorance makes many not exploit it. However, he may not have been bitten by a venomous snake even though he used the herb as a cure.

Not all snakes are venomous

Forget all you're reading here. 4 litres of palm oil or coconut water in the same qua tity immediately dilutes the entire blood stream making it impossible for the venom to flow freely throughout the blood system. Once the blood stream is diluted with palm oil for example, forget it. This buys the victim up to 2 days sef.


No matter the poison, don't forget this information ever

who go drink 4litres of palm oil? can u drink 4litres of water

Am very sure that snake bite him then. He was rushing into the bush like he must get that leave early. And if you see that snake,my brother you go open mouth

I can't. But in that state. During the transit, time will be spent. During this transit, applying in bits will help. I helped a nearly dying person and assisted the doctors when I finally got him into an hospital applying same brilliance displayed here.

You don't just get what the person was insinuating. He wasn't saying you're an illiterate or you did a bad job.

Your explanation and suggestions were appropriate and very catchy but not comprehensible, at least not to a layman. You could have done better by giving the name majority of the people reading your comment can relate with instead of spelling out their botanical names. With that, you would have communicated your thought much more better.

My fear and hatred for snake and anything that crawls is justified. imagine one going through such painful exit because of one valueless creature. And some people still have guts to shout animal cruelty when they see a snake being cruelly smashed to.death.

As dangerous as snakes are, why did God create them in the first place?

I am Ghanaian and the names i know them by are Ghanaian names and not Nigerian which was why i gave the botanical names. Anyone who wants to know the plant should just pick the botanical name, and search for it on google and see what the plant looks like. A lot of them are right in our neighbourhoods

God created snakes with a benefit to man in mind. They can keep pests, such as rats and mice, in check. And some species of snakes that are harmless to people prey on poisonous snakes, reducing the chance of a deadly encounter. Snakes can be useful in controlling rat populations.

nice, let me add, u can actually use ur mouth to suck out the venom from the bite site and the venom will have not effect on the person sucking it; this is because venoms are made up of proteins and when u suck the venom into your mouth, ur digestive enzymes will digest the venom thereby rendering it impotent.

Pls do NOT do any of these as it will only worsen the situation. The only remedy is immediate anti-venom. If possible, kill the snake and take with u to the hospital for easy identification of the type of snake.
They should have rushed the poor boy to FMC Umuahia, which should have been easier to access rather than Aba.

OP,,it depends on the species of the snake...For example if you were bitten by a king cobra,,do not run I repeat don't run..the faster you run,,the faster the venom spread in your body...

Can't stop smiling over this reply, so what u saying is that, a dangerous, highly venomous and life threatening animal like snake was created by God to keep away peste as rats?

Does rat bite, if it does, does it bites kill someone?

Who told you this please? You will end up poisoning yourself if you suck out the venom. Moreover, the venom doesnt stay waiting. The human blood supply is constantly flowing and by the time the bite is delivered, the blood carrying the venom has left the area moving towards the heart.

Ask your uncle what the black stone is

..to think I came across this so called back stone around area 3 in Abuja with some harb seller then , I underrated that stone hence I couldn't buy it .


Well, with different theory and argument here , the safest I think is to keep calm and rush victim to the hospital.

foolbuster:


Please stop spreading false info. This is serious, someone will actually read this thinking its true and might end up gulping kerosene.

Please dont drink kerosene under any circumstance snake bite or whatever it can kill you.

my dear it's not fake. Three tablespoon of kerosene can't kill anyone but will kill the venom quickly and stop it from spreading. Why not ask around. That's the first aid my cousin that is a professor at FUTO gave the mum when she was bitten by a snake. He is a research botanist. There was no swelling whatsoever

Does rat bite, if it does, does it bites kill someone?

There is a specie of rat called the Crested rat that is venomous. Plus rats can be extremely harmful to humans if not more harmful than snakes.

Some of the diseases rats can transmit to humans are and not limited to;

HANTAVIRUS. Most commonly found in the white-footed mouse, cotton rat and rice rat, the Hantavirus is a potentially life-threatening disease that currently has no specific treatment, cure or vaccine. ...

LYMPHOCYTIC CHORIOMENINGITIS VIRUS (LCMV)

PLAGUE.

SALMONELLA. ...

RAT BITE FEVER. ...

TULAREMIA.

You have no idea how dangerous rats truly are.

People encounter snakes a lot fewer than they encounter rats
