Health › 5 Things To Do If You Are Bitten By A Snake by FahBuLous(op): 6:33pm On Oct 11, 2021 |
Whether you’re scared of snakes or you apply a ‘they won’t bother me if I don’t bother them’ attitude, if you live in Queensland, it’s good to know what you should do if you get bitten by a snake.
Snakes usually bite defensively, rather than actively attacking humans, and in Queensland it’s as common for people to be bitten around the home as it is out in the bush or other wild areas. If you’re ever bitten by a snake, keeping these tips in mind might save your life.
1. Call an ambulance immediately
You should treat any snake bite as an emergency, regardless of whether you think the snake was venomous or not. Many snakes look similar, and if you wait to see if you feel symptoms of venom poisoning, it might be too late by the time you get help.
What to do
You need to stay as still as possible, so rather than running for a phone, use a mobile phone or have someone else go and call for help.
2. Don’t panic and don’t move
While it’s easier said than done, staying calm and still after a snake bite can help slow down the spread of venom in your body. If you’ve been bitten by a poisonous snake, not moving might save your life.
It’s a myth that snake venom gets straight into your blood stream after a bite. Instead, it moves through your lymphatic system. Lymph is a fluid in your body that contains white blood cells. Unlike blood, which is pumped around your body continuously, your lymph moves when you move your limbs. If you can stay still and calm, you can prevent the venom in your lymph traveling further into your body.
What to do
If you’re sure the snake has moved away after biting you and you’re not in danger of being bitten again, remain where you are, rather than walking to get help. If you’re with other people, they shouldn’t move you at all, but start administering first aid where you are.
Take long, deep breaths to help calm yourself down. Remember that the odds are in your favour: it’s rare for people to die after being bitten by a snake, especially if they follow first aid steps.
3. Leave the snake alone
Don’t try to identify, catch, injure or kill the snake – you’re likely to come off second best. At the hospital, staff have access to a range of tests that can help them determine the likely snake which you have been bitten by, enabling them to give you the most appropriate treatment. 4. Apply a pressure immobilisation bandage and splint
Most snake bites occur on a limb, so legs, feet, arms and hands are most commonly affected. If you’ve been bitten on a limb, applying a pressure immobilisation bandage can stop the venom moving through your lymphatic system.
What to do
If you’ve got a pad or even a piece of plastic like cling wrap, put it over the bite site to either soak up or protect the venom for later testing.
5. Don’t wash, suck, cut or tourniquet the bite
There are a lot of old methods of treating snake bites that are now known to cause more harm than good.
Washing the snake bite site can wash off venom that the hospital staff may be able to use to identify the type of snake that bit you. You should also keep clothing from around the bite site, because additional movement can cause venom to more readily move into the blood stream.
Do not suck or cut the bite area. Do not apply a tourniquet to the limb – this can be dangerous...
Stay safe..

OJEEMAH: If PSG does not improve before the knock out games, they may not go beyond the Quarter Finals.
The team lack balance and that's the first problem I expected the coach to solve.
If Pochie is smart.........He ought to have taken advantage of Messi's creativity and play him behind Mbappe while Di Maria operates from the right then find the right player to partner Verrati but instead the mediocre gaffer go play 2 hard tacklers (Perreira & Gana) wey lack every sense of creativity in the middle and still expect a good link up in the attack. No be juju be that? For me, I think he should play an attack of Neymar, mbappe and di Maria... Then Messi occupies the number 8 position, with verrati and wijnaldum behind... Verratti can do the dirty work , wijnaldum will bring creativity and we already know what Messi can do.... The pair of Verratti and gana is not just working, no creativity at all in the midfield... |

DeLight360: Friday vibes�
I can still remember the christmas party i celebrated in my uncle's house **the events can never leave my head**.......
It was a cold harmattan morning. Me and my whole family were preparing to visit my uncles house to celebrate christmas. I was so happy because their fridge is always loaded with different types of meat ** I remember secretly loading my socks with chicken during one christmas when i was little**
The journey started and i placed my earpiece and increased the volume to max... I didn't know when my mom was talking to me until my siblings were looking at me in the car and smiling...i was like what happened. I did not even complete it before i felt something like bag of cement on my face but it was my mothers hand. I off my phone and remove the earpiece sharp sharp before she seize it with hot tears in my eyes.
About 30 mins later we were at our uncles place. He and his wife welcomed us warmly but i could not hear properly due to the slap.... We were served refreshments before they would Prepare food in the evening. I retired to the guest room and used my phone until when the cooking started. I helped out in the kitchen and received approximately 8 slaps and 2 murder attempts from my mother (story for another day)...
Finally the food was ready and served-rice and chicken stew. "Time to eat the fruit of my labour" I said to myself. I kept my chicken lap in the centre and ate the rice while stealing constant glances at the meat. I cleard my rice in less than 20 mins and smiled to myself thinking of how i would devour the chicken... and then boom my uncle's 2 year old child grabbed my chicken and ran away... Yeeee my spirit screamed from inside *after everything i went through in my mother's hand, the worse thing was that only the legs of the chicken were left in the pot* i just watched as the child devoured the meat while my family and my uncle with his wife laughed expecting me to behave mature... But no no no no I just walked to their poultry farm, carried one fowl and ran away..
