A tragedy of poisonous snake hurting people occurred in Yingshan County, Sichuan.
A local 78-year-old man got up and according to usual practice, he prepared to release the goose locked up in the house. When he walked to Guange's house, he was unfortunately bitten by a poisonous snake called "rotten grass snake", which is the original spearhead viper, commonly known as " iron-headed ". After being bitten by the poisonous snake, the old man did not go to a regular hospital for medical treatment, but found a "jianghu doctor" to prescribe medicine and disinfect the wound. After
, I didn’t pay attention to this matter and continued to work on other tasks.
That night, the old man's bitten foot swelled. The next day, he started to feel chest tightness and shortness of breath. The old man felt uncomfortable and decided to go to the doctor, but the doctor had been 24 hours before he was bitten.
Finally, the old man unfortunately died because he did not inject anti-venomous serum in time.
The reason why the spearhead viper is so venomous is two aspects. One is: has strong toxicity ,
Research found that one thousandth of a milliliter (diluted) of snake venom, injecting 10 grams of small white mouse with a weight of can cause the death of the guinea pig within 2 hours. Among them, 48 mg (dry weight) of venom can cause death.
On the other hand, releases a large amount of toxicity , and the maximum amount of toxicity can reach 108 mg.
has strong toxicity and a large amount of toxicity, so it is very dangerous to bite by original spearhead viper . If you are bitten, it is best to inject anti-venom serum within 1 hour of golden, and at least you have to go to a regular hospital for medical treatment.
did not seek medical treatment in time after being bitten by a venomous snake, which is not uncommon for death. Recently, a case of " silver ring snake biting the owner to death" was announced in Haidian District, Beijing. In this case, the protagonist unfortunately died because he did not inject the snake venom serum in time.
In 2018, a 21-year-old girl from Shaanxi purchased silver ring snakes twice from the Internet and transported them by express delivery. Silver ring snakes are the number one venomous snake in my country. They are very toxic, but they are usually timid and shy by nature, and like to lie down at night, so not many people are bitten by silver ring snakes.
However, after the girl got the silver ring snake, she actually kept the silver ring snake as a pet snake. During the feeding process, the girl unfortunately bitten her fingers by the silver ring snake. After being bitten, the girl did not seek medical treatment immediately. When she was treated, the doctor found that she was bitten by the silver ring snake. The silver ring snake was a southern snake, not a local snake in Shaanxi. The local hospital did not have this anti-venom serum. After searching for multiple sources, she finally found the serum in Shanghai, but she had missed the best time for injecting anti-venom serum, which led to the ineffective rescue of the girl.
Now, this case has been announced in Haidian District, Beijing. sellers, express companies and platforms are responsible for the girl's death.
In 2019, there was also a woman bitten by a poisonous snake in Jiangsu. She did not seek medical treatment in time, but instead tried to save trouble, she directly found a local local doctor. The local doctor was also brave and directly brought some local medicines and let the woman go home.
But the woman did not recover after taking the medicine, and her condition became worse and worse. The woman who felt something was wrong quickly so she went to the doctor. The woman was lucky. Although the entire wound was swollen and purple when she was seeking medical treatment, she could not walk, and her consciousness was not good, but after injecting snake venom serum, her condition improved significantly.
Doctor said that the reason why the woman is so lucky is mainly because the snake is not venomous. If it is a snake with strong toxicity, it is very likely that other results will occur if it is not injected with serum for such a long time.
Snake
From the current perspective, snake venom is divided into three categories: blood circulation toxin, neurotoxin , and mixed toxins.
If it is bitten by a poisonous snake with blood toxin, such as: the soldering iron head, the wound will quickly swell and continue to hurt. If it is not treated in time, the wound will generally be so painful that it is difficult to move.
Neurotoxin venom, especially the silver ring snake, because the silver ring snake has small venom and the amount of venom injected is relatively small, but it belongs to "There is not enough venom, so it is toxic to make up" . It is very toxic and may not sense pain after being bitten by it, but its toxin is a neurotoxin, which will make people drowsy, weak limbs, and eventually die of poison.
mixed toxin, as the name suggests, it contains both blood circulation toxin and neurotoxin. cobra is a venomous snake mixed with toxin. It is contrary to the silver ring snake. It is "not toxic enough, so venom comes to make up". Whether it is a silver ring snake or a cobra, it is a super venomous snake in our country. If you are bitten by them, you must seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
Antivenomous Serum
So far, the special medicine for treating snake injuries is "antivenomous Serum". In fact, the production of this kind of serum is very troublesome, and almost few manufacturers are willing to produce it.
Our domestic serum mainly uses horses. After we take out snake venom from the body of venomous snakes, we inject the treated venom into the body of the horse through attenuation treatment. After the venom enters the body of the horse, antibodies will gradually be produced in the horse's blood. We then extract "antivenom serum" from the horse's blood and make it into a drug. The production cycle of an antivenom serum takes about 9 months. After someone is bitten by a venomous snake, a matching antivenom serum will be found according to the corresponding venomous snake for symptomatic treatment.
Because the demand for anti-venom serum is small, the storage conditions are high, the shelf life is short, and the serum production is not easy, many manufacturers are unwilling to produce this medicine, but in order to save people, some manufacturers still insist on producing anti-venom serum. #Telebrity Creation Challenge##Snake# #Sichuan#
