    Ants are sensitive to temperature and are more likely to be active in hot weather. They love sweet foods such as cakes, honey, maltose, red ponds, eggs, fruit pits, meat skins, dead insects, etc. Being bitten by ants is generally poisonous, but the toxicity is not the same.

    If you are bitten by ordinary ants around you, it is not a big harm to take a small packet. Rub a little iodine wine, or regular liquor, and you'll be fine. If you are bitten by ants in tropical areas or forest ants, and have severe pain, you should pay attention to it, and go to the hospital for laboratory testing and disinfection in time after simple disinfection treatment.

    Let's talk about some common contingencies based on my own experience.

    If it is just a general discomfort, you first soak the wound in hot water for about 15 minutes, wipe the wound with water, apply a little toothpaste, and apply it with a hemostatic patch.

    The saliva of poisonous ants is acidic, and can be coated with soapy water or 3%-10% ammonia and 5%-10% sodium bicarbonate solution.

    For slight discomfort, apply a little flower dew water wind oil essence and cooling oil can be used.

    Local redness, swelling, and pain should be given with a local injection of procaine 2%: systemic antibiotics should be added to prevent subsequent infection. If you have blackening, please take it to the hospital promptly.

    If the systemic symptoms are obvious, snake medicine can be taken.

    It is recommended to go to the hospital when the whole body aches, nausea, and discomfort.

    There is an acidic substance in the ant body cloth, and when the ant bites, this substance will be injected into the skin, and then the rag will damage the pH of the skin, resulting in redness, swelling and itchy skin.

    Alkaline pancakes can be used to flush out wounds and help improve acid-base balance. If the condition is more severe, you can also use a cloth with anti-inflammatory drugs for treatment, and taking a tablet of loratadine can also help to improve this kind of condition. In addition to this allergization, it is also necessary to keep the wound clean and prevent infection.
