Maybe the very best thing about going to my mom’s is her avocado trees since she has a ton of ripe ones as well as I added one to my salad. totally free fresh avocado – not sure if it gets any type of much better than that…

My bit brother, Matt as well as feline lucky in front of previously discussed large fridge…

I paired my salad with a little bag of popcorn for carb-age. Yes, I’m blogging from the kitchen area table at my mom’s today just like old times.

And then we took the dogs for a walk. It’s as well beautiful outside!

So after yesterday’s snake sighting hearing Ben as well as I discussed what we ought to do if one of us was bitten. We both had theories…

Me:“Maybe I ought to run to the cars and truck to get to the medical facility faster. But, that may spread the poison with my body faster, so I’m not sure…”

Ben: “I’ve heard you ought to try as well as catch the snack so the physicians understand what type of venom it has.”

So, if I’m bitten he’s going to chase after the snake as well as get poisoned as well? Fan-freaking-tastic.

Turns out we’re both wrong, however I was on the best track.

Here are some Rattle snake Facts from Along the Way

What to do if bitten by a rattle snake from path blazer Magazine:

Stay calm, get safely away from the snake, as well as have somebody phone call 9-1-1 (or the emergency number in your area). The less the sufferer moves the bitten site, the less likely the venom will be profused as well as cause damage.

Have the sufferer lie down with the impacted limb lower than the heart. keep the limb immobilized. If practical, splint the limb.

Treat for shock as well as protect body heat.

Apply a light constricting band about 2″ above as well as below the bite, nevertheless never location the bands on either side of a joint (such as above as well as below the knee or elbow). This band ought to be made up of wide, soft material, that might be a scarf or shredded clothing. The band ought to only be as tight as the band the nurse applies when providing a blood test.

NOTE: The function of constricting bands is to restrict lymphatic flow, not blood, so they ought to not be as well tight. inspect pulses below the bands as well as readjust them as required when they tighten because of swelling.

Wash the bite with soap as well as water (if available).

If the sufferer has to walk out, sit calmly for 20-30 minutes to let the venom localize at the site,proceed calmly to the nearest source of assist as well as try to prevent unnecessary exertion that will stimulate circulation of the poison.

Get the sufferer to conclusive medical care for antivenin, that will offer the biggest relief from the toxic impacts of the bite. (source)
