Snake in the Blog !!!!!!!!

In this post,
I want to share some of my knowledge with you guys.
Some knowledge I know about snake.
Hmm...
shouldn't be just about snake,
but some knowledge about what to do if you get bite by a snake.

1st of all, let me tell you how to identify a poisonous snake or a non-poisonous snake.

A non-poisonous snake have a round head and the poisonous snake have a triangle head.

hmm...

Lets make it in point form.

Non Poisonous Snakes

Head - Rounded
Fangs - Not present
Pupils - Rounded
Anal Plate - Double row of plates
Bite Mark - Row of small teeth.

Poisonous Snakes

Head - Triangle - except Cobra
Fangs - Present
Pupils - Elliptical pupil
Anal Plate - Single row of plates
Bite Mark - Fang Mark

I found this image from the web.

So how if you get bite??

1st identify is it a poisonous snake it or not.

Mostly if you get bite from a poisonous snake,

you can see clearly there are 2 holes created by it's fangs.
And your skins around the holes will be a bit red in color.

If it was a non-poisonous snake,

it do have something similar.
Skins around where it bites will be in red.
You can see your wound don't have 2 deep holes but many signs of teeth,
just like a baby bite you.


If you were there beside the victim when him/her get bite.

Is much more easy to settle if you get bite by a non-poisonous snake.

• Remove everything around where you get bite, including cloths, jewel or anything. Anything, just remove it from the wound.
  

• Wash the wound with soap and water.

• Place a cold pack or ice pack on the wound, 15 minutes on and 15 minutes off.

• Keep victim calm. PLEASE DO NOT give sedative or alcohol.
  

It is a big problem if you get bite by a poisonous snake.

• 1st of all, very important, stay calm and .....and...... AND !!!!! GET THE VICTIM NOT THE SNAKE. Walaoeh, the victim needs more help la. This is not a movie OK? You think you can go chase the snake and cut it into pieces then only come back to save life? Your victim is dead then.

• Again, remove everything around the wounds and clean it BUT NOT place a ice pack or anything cold to the wound

• Try your best to maintain the wound same height as the victim's hearth level.

• Erm, then you need to tie...erm let say if the victim's hand get bitten by the poisonous snake, tie his/her arm with a cloth or something. DON'T tie it tight. Release the tie and tie again every 10 minutes. Just to slow the blood flow around his/her body.

• If can, get some matches. Use only the matches' head. Put some at the wound, then burn it. This will be painful. Actually this don't just work on the snake poison. It do works on every poisoned wound. If you don't want to use matches, you can use gun powder if you have some. XD
  

There are something that you MUST NOT do to the victim.

• Cut the wound because this will make the venom spread faster.
• Don't suck the wound with your mouth.
• don't apply tourniquet or constricting band.
  

Finally, bring the victim to the clinic or hospital as fast as possible.

So, I hope these few sentences helps you out.
Feel free to leave a comment here if have a better way or
I made a mistake.
Because this causes life.
Life is important ,
Peace
