Ukubopha ngokucindezela nokuvimba ukunyakaza (pressure immobilisation): bopha ibhandeshi elinwebekayo eliqinile phezu kwenxeba bese ukhuphuka nesitho sonke, usiqinise nge-splint, futhi ugcine umuntu engashukumi nhlobo kuze kufike usizo.
Ungaligezi inxeba lokulunywa: izibhedlela zingahlola ubuthi obusele esikhumbeni ukuze zikhethe i-antivenom efanele.

Hlala uphephile

Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Uma sikuluma: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.

Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile
