First Aid for Snake Bites

Snake bites may be poisonous and can be fatal if nothing is done immediately.

First Aid

  1. Keep the patient still to slow down circulation.
  2. Incise the bitten area and let it bleed to remove the poison.
  3. Wrap a teaspoonful of salt in a handkerchief or a piece of cloth and moisten the salt with water. Apply it directly over the wound after the bleeding. Apply for 10-15 minutes.
  4. Bring the patient to the nearest hospital or clinic immediately.
