What should I do if I am bitten by a poisonous snake?
Don't be too alarmed if you are accidentally bitten by a snake. The emergency treatment after being bitten by a snake is as follows:

First of all, calm down, rest on the spot, and don't panic, so as not to delay the time and spread the toxin to the whole body. Secondly, since snake venom can be absorbed within 3-5 minutes, it should be immediately wrapped with a belt or handkerchief at a distance of 5- 10 cm from the wound, and relaxed for 1-2 minutes every 15-30 minutes to avoid ischemia and necrosis of the distal limb. Or squeeze around the wound with your hands and squeeze out the venom as much as possible. In an emergency, you can also suck out the venom as much as possible with your mouth. Spit it out immediately after each inhalation and rinse your mouth with clear water. Note: The smoker's mouth must be free of mucosal ulcers and dental caries, otherwise it may also cause poisoning. If conditions permit, it is best to use ice packs and cold towels to compress the wound, which can reduce the absorption rate of toxins and the activity of enzymes in toxins.

After on-site rescue, the injured should be sent to the hospital for further treatment as soon as possible and treated with antivenom. The injured can drink water when they are thirsty, but don't drink alcohol, so as to avoid speeding up blood circulation and spreading toxins more easily.
