毒液力量

螫

毒液從螫針出來。

牠的毒液有什麼作用?

The venom causes pain in most cases, and swelling, burning, redness and itching around the sting are also common. Neurological symptoms include tingling, cramps, excitement and headache. Other reported symptoms include pale skin, a fast heartbeat, difficulty breathing, low blood pressure, an irregular heartbeat and chest pain, along with low body temperature in some cases. Vomiting, nausea and sweating can also occur.1

牠對人有多危險?

對人的危險: 嚴重被螫了需要看醫生。死亡案例非常罕見。

It is the main cause of more serious scorpion accidents in Argentina. It is not usually aggressive. How severe a sting is depends on the age of the person stung and the amount of venom injected.1

牠害怕時會做什麼?

It can sting to defend itself when it is handled, stepped on, or hidden in clothing when someone is getting dressed.1

如果牠螫人

  • 用冰敷袋冰敷螫傷處,讓傷者保持不動。趕快就醫,特別是小朋友:有些蠍子對小孩是致命的。

一定要先打緊急電話(112、000、911)。這是一般急救指引,不是醫療建議。 急救基本知識

注意安全

  • 絕對不要碰、抓或捉弄野生動物,就算是很小的動物,就算牠看起來在睡覺或已經死了也一樣。
  • 給牠空間。如果遇到了,保持冷靜,慢慢往後退,讓牠自己離開。
  • 如果被牠螫了:保持冷靜,保持不動,打緊急電話(112、000、911)或趕快去醫院。記住牠的樣子,有照片會很有幫助。

牠不是想來抓你。牠用毒液來捕捉食物或保護自己,而且牠更想躲起來。 更多安全知識
