    After being bitten by a venomous snake, emergency treatment:

    1. After being bitten by a venomous snake, you should be calm, reduce your activities as much as possible, and deal with it on the spot.

    2. Immediately tie the proximal end of the venomous snakebite limb (i.e., the end close to the heart) about 5 cm with a cloth belt or tourniquet to reduce the absorption and diffusion of toxins. The sooner the ligation, the better, the tightness of the binding is to block the lymphatic or venous return (does not affect the arterial blood**), and the binding is released in time after the local wound has been properly treated, so as to avoid circulatory disorders.

    3. Rinse the wound: according to local conditions, you can choose spring water, water, cold boiled water, or even rinse the wound repeatedly with your own solution, rinse the adherent venom, reduce the absorption of toxins, and eliminate snake venom as soon as possible.

    4. After finding and extracting its fangs, you can use a clean sharp, porcelain or glass to cut the wound or make a cross-shaped incision with the viper's tooth marks as the center, deep under the skin, and then squeeze.

    After being bitten by a venomous snake in the wild, the first thing is to stay calm. After being bitten by a venomous snake, the speed of first aid is calculated in minutes and seconds, the sooner the better, the faster the better, you must keep calm in order to save yourself in an orderly manner. Remember not to run fast, as the blood circulation will speed up, and the speed at which the snake venom will enter the body through the blood circulation will be accelerated.

    Second, pull out the fangs. Poisonous snakes bite people usually out of self-defense and fight back. As soon as a person steps on a snake, the snake's counterattack is a dying struggle, so it will bite very hard.

    Shake off the poisonous snake, and the fangs will often break inside the wound. The venom in the fangs is extracted as quickly as possible for further first aid to avoid causing more venom to invade the human body. Secondly, the fire.

    The fire does not need to scorch the wound, only the wound needs to be blistered. The heads of the matches are circled towards the wound, and the matches are detonated with lit matches. A deflagration of a match is enough to destroy local snake venom.

    Ligation. The sooner the ligation is done, the better, using a rope or by tearing clothing into strips of cloth for the wound and the ligation site. Ligation is the extent that arterial blood can pass through the vein and cannot flow back.

    The ligation should not be too tight and too long. Many snake wound patients have limb necrosis and are eventually forced to amputate, mostly because the limb ischemia is caused by a long transit time after ligation. Washing.

    Place the wound under running clean water and rub the wound with your hands under the water to wash away the venom that adheres to the wound. Toxins are removed before they enter the body. These are all ways to save yourself from being bitten by a poisonous snake.

In daily life, if people are unfortunately bitten by poisonous snakes, then they should find a place with water as soon as possible, put the amount of water to the maximum, and rinse the wound repeatedly, so as to dilute the venom components in the wound. Usually, the venom will stay in the wound immediately after being bitten by a venomous snake, and rinsing with water can slowly expel some of the venom, but be sure to rinse it with running water.

    2. After rinsing the wound, people should tie their arms or thighs not far from the wound with a strap, which can slow down the blood circulation of the body and prevent the rapid spread of venom, but it must not be tied too tightly.

    3. After people are bitten by poisonous snakes, in addition to treating their own wounds, they should also call the hospital for help as soon as possible, and at the same time do not walk too fast or run fast, which will accelerate the spread of venom, and should be slow.
