毒液之力

蜇伤

毒液通过蜇刺出来。

它的毒液会造成什么？

Its venom contains excitatory neurotoxins, which overstimulate the nerves, and cardiotoxins, which damage the heart. Reported symptoms in people include severe local pain, swelling, heavy sweating, vomiting, numbness that spreads, muscle twitching, convulsions, drowsiness, hallucinations, fast breathing, a fast heartbeat and heavy drooling. Symptoms can come on quickly and become severe.1

它对人有多危险？

对人的危险: 非常危险不治疗可能会害死人。

In Guyana, a 16-year-old boy died 16 hours after being stung. Over a 12-month period in Guyana, three people died: two children and a 30-year-old man. In Santarém, Pará, Brazil, a presumed sting by this species caused acute cerebellar dysfunction in 58 patients, with symptoms lasting up to two days. Two of these patients had intense rhabdomyolysis, a breakdown of muscle tissue, and acute kidney injury.1

如果它蜇人

  • 用冰袋冷敷蜇伤处，让人保持不动。尽快就医，尤其是儿童：有些蝎子对孩子是致命的。

一定先拨打你的急救电话（112、000、911）。这里是一般急救指导，不是医疗建议。 急救基础

注意安全

  • 永远不要摸、抓或逗弄野生动物，即使是很小的，即使它看起来在睡觉或已经死了。
  • 给它留出空间。如果遇到它，保持冷静，慢慢后退，让它走自己的路。
  • 如果被它蜇了：保持冷静，保持不动，拨打你的急救电话（112、000、911）或尽快去医院。记住它长什么样，拍张照片会有帮助。

它不是冲着你来的。它用毒液捕猎或保护自己，而且它更愿意躲起来。 更多安全知识
