What if you get sucked by a leech, what if you get into your body by a leech locust ?

We often see a lot of leeches in the pond, and if you are not careful, you will be sucked by it. Take a look below.

01 Don't pull out the leech too hard, as the suction cup will absorb the leech tighter. In this way, once the leech is pulled off, the suction cup will remain in the wound and can easily cause infection and ulcers.

02 You can gently pat the grasshopper bite or gently squat around the leech with your hand so that the leech releases the suction cup. You can also use cool oil, smoke (water soaked in cigarettes), salt (salt is very important in outdoor activities, no matter ** it is best to carry a small packet), vinegar, wine (or liquor), pepper , lime, etc., sprinkle on the body of the insect so that it can relax the suction cup and fall off on its own.

03 When you are bitten, you must calmly take out the salt you carry with you and sprinkle it on the grasshopper. When you notice that it will squirm slowly, you can gently move it out of the way.

04 After the locust falls, if the wound is not bleeding, it can be used to squeeze blood out of the wound, rinse it with baking soda or water, and then apply it with iodine or red wine. Mercury disinfection.

First of all, to smoothly detach the locust from the wound, at this time avoid pulling hard, so as not to fall off the locust's suction cup, it is recommended to use concentrated salt water to drop on the locust's body, so that it can fall off from the wound site on its own. Secondly, after the locust falls off, it is recommended to squeeze the ** around the wound to squeeze out as much blood as possible. Use saline to rinse the wound site.

Finally, iodophor is used to disinfect the wound site. If the wound is deep, it is recommended to go to the hospital to have the wound area debrided by a professional staff, and then the wound site is bandaged. For severe local swelling, it is recommended to take amoxicillin capsules and heat clearing and detoxification oral liquid for anti-infection**.

In the later stage, it is necessary to change the dressing of the wound site, stop and observe the wound in time to avoid infection at the wound site.

Considering that it is caused by infection, it should be checked in detail and clarified, actively**, first apply amoxicillin, roxithromycin, etc. to actively control the infection, and then supplemented by symptomatic and support**, daily reasonable diet, drink more water, and pay attention to rest.

<> leech's mouthparts are a suction cup, which can be tightly adsorbed on the body of humans or animals, and the ** of the suction cup has 3 fleshy jaw pieces, and there are many fine serrations on the base of the jaw, and the sawtooth can cut through the ** of people and animals. When leeches suck blood, they secrete saliva that prevents blood from clotting, allowing blood to flow down the wound into the leech's mouth.

If the "living leech" is accidentally eaten into the stomach, there is no need to take it out at all, although there are cases of leeches parasitic on the human body, but it is only parasitic in the nose, pharynx, throat or body surface, if it is eaten in the stomach, it will suffocate to death, even if it is left in the stomach or intestines after death, it will be digested by digestive juices.

Another name of leech is "grasshopper", mainly distributed in freshwater areas, produced in many places in China, because it has high medicinal value, and is also artificially cultivated. The body shape of the leech is a bit similar to the willow leaf, the body is oblate, the body length is between 2 12cm, there are some huge species, there are suction cups at the front end of the head, there are ring stripes on the body, it is a cold-blooded link, wild leeches feed on animal blood and body fluids, and the farmed leeches feed on animal visceral feed, trash fish, earthworms, etc.

Leeches are widely distributed, covering almost most of China's lakes and rivers, such as Northeast, North, Central, South China and other regions.

The parasitic mode of leeches is somewhat special, it is not like pork tapeworms through eggs or larvae to parasitize the human body, but directly parasitized by adult worms, most of the parasitic behavior occurs in the case of human drinking or in the "natural water", taking the "mouth, nose, pharynx" parasitism as an example, most of them are in the process of drinking "natural water", leeches take the opportunity to drill in, and then use the suction cup of the head to adsorb on the mucous membrane, and survive by sucking human blood and body fluids.

After being parasitized by small leeches, the human body does not feel particularly big at first, but as the leeches grow, they will feel a foreign body sensation at the parasitic site, and there will also be bleeding, the most common is nasal and pharyngeal parasitism.

It is important to know that leeches are cold-blooded annelids, and these animals also need to breathe and must have water. But leeches are different from other species in that they breathe through moist body walls, and leeches can breathe through the body walls when they are in the water or parasitic on the mouth, nose, throat and other parts of the human body, which is one of the reasons why it can survive parasitizing on the human body.

But the human stomach is different, the human respiratory system and the eating system are separated, human breathing through the mouth, nose, pharynx and other parts of the inhalation or exhalation, and the mucosa will secrete some body fluids, but the human esophagus, stomach, intestines can not have so much oxygen in the leeches to breathe, and belong to the acid-base environment, but also secrete some highly corrosive digestive juices, once the leeches enter the human stomach or intestines, they will be corroded and dissolved by the digestive juices, absorbed by the human body, and the other part is discharged with food residues. Therefore, whether it is a live leech or a dead leech, after eating it in the stomach, it does not need to be taken out again.

Conclusion: The medicinal value of leeches is very high, in the early years human beings did not abuse pesticides, many natural water has leeches, but in recent years, wild leeches have been very rare, most leeches rely on artificial breeding, and there are few cases of leeches parasitic on the human body, most leeches can only parasitize in people, mouth, nose, pharynx, this is because these organs can provide a living environment for leeches but if they enter the human stomach or intestines, they cannot survive.

Be sure to go to the hospital in time for gastric lavage, use the correct way to deal with this problem, and you can also vomit out this thing by inducing vomiting.

You can get parasitic diseases, most leeches are not parasites that will be digested in the human body, but leeches themselves can carry a large number of parasites.

I think I should go to the hospital and see a doctor, and the doctor can take it out by the corresponding technical means.

I know that you can get rid of leeches with a sprinkling.

In short, when leeches are attached to our body, we must not tear them violently, and for the sake of insurance, we should use the right method to solve it. At the same time, you can go to the hospital for a simple bandaging to prevent infection of the wound. That's all for the advice, I hope it will be helpful to you.

If the leech bites a relatively flat part, such as the calf, forearm, etc., you can ask others to repeatedly pat around the leech's bite**, and through continuous vibration, the suction cup can fall off naturally. But if it doesn't fall off, you still have to ask a medical professional to help deal with it.

Don't force it out, if the suction cup of the leech breaks into the body, it is difficult to take it out, and it is easy to cause infection, so don't be afraid of gently patting ** with clear water.
