THINGS THAT MUST BE DONE IMMEDIATELY WITH SNAKE BITCH

1. Remove clothes or jewelry

Snake bites can cause swelling in a short time. Swelling can also be large quickly. The first step to make first aid easy is to open clothes by tearing or cutting so that the area affected by the bite can be seen clearly.

2. Don't move much

Can poison in snakes spread rapidly along with blood flow in the body. therefore try not to move much, if you need to tie a cloth to an area that is bitten by a snake to slow down the rate of blood flow in the area. Position the area bitten by a snake lower than the heart. This is also an attempt to slow down the rate of blood flow so as not to quickly spread to the heart and throughout the body. The key is don't panic, because if you panic your heart will beat faster which can speed up blood flow.

3. Do not clean the wound with water

So that the wound does not become an infection, immediately clean the wound in the area that is bitten by a snake but don't rinse immediately with water. Wet a clean cloth and gently wipe the bite wound. Then cover the wound with a clean cloth or bandage. Do not occasionally try to remove toxins by sucking or opening the wound because this is dangerous. Compressing wounds with ice cubes is also not permissible because it can break blood vessels
