What to Do If You Get Bitten by a Snake
If you are bitten by a snake, stay calm and follow the following steps to reduce the risk of poisoning and complications:
1. Stay Calm and Limit Movement
Do not panic, because increased heart rate can spread the venom faster.
Keep the bitten area still and ideally positioned lower than the heart.
2. Call Emergency Services Immediately
Dial 911 (or your local emergency number) to get medical help as soon as possible.
If someone is with you, ask them to call for help and assist you in getting to a hospital.
3. Perform Proper First Aid
✅ Clean the wound gently with water and soap.
✅ Apply a loose bandage if you suspect a venomous snakebite (but do not wrap too tightly).
✅ Stay as still as possible, especially the affected limb.
