Nguvu ya sumu

Kuumwa

Sumu hutoka kupitia meno yake ya sumu au meno anapouma.

Sumu yake hufanya nini?

Its venom is highly cytotoxic, which means it damages cells. The venom is produced in very small amounts. Bite symptoms usually include mild to intense pain, local swelling with occasional blistering, and necrosis (death of tissue) and swollen lymph nodes near the bite. Dry throat and nausea may appear in the early stages.1

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

Hatari kwa watu: MbayaKuumwa kunahitaji daktari. Vifo ni nadra sana.

Bites are common in some parts of Africa. It is the third most common cause of serious snakebites in South Africa, after the Mozambique spitting cobra and the puff adder. Snake handlers are often bitten, because the snake can bite while being held by its neck. No deaths have been recorded, but the bite is serious.1

Akiuma

  • Any bite from this snake needs medical treatment as soon as possible. The bite is serious and treatment will need to be provided by medical staff.1
  • Osha jeraha, mweke mtu mtulivu na utafute msaada wa kitabibu. Baadhi ya spishi (kama boomslang) zinaweza kuua saa kadhaa baadaye.

Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza

Kaa salama

  • Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
  • Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
  • Akikuuma: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.

Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama
