24 HOUR VENOMOUS SNAKEBITE UPDATE (NO ANTIVENOM)

in #health5 years ago

Don't try this at home, or in the swamp!

This is not what I expected... Sure, I guess I figured that eventually I'd probably get bit by a venomous snake, but for the ER doctors to SUGGEST that I skip the antivenom and just head home was rather unexpected. Now, a day later, I seem to be still doing okay. We'll see what happens.

Well, I hope you learned something from that. I often thought you almost act like this crazy Australian guy did. He also grabbed every animal he could find and held it into the camera - until a sting ray killed him. Be glad you got away with a swollen hand and a hospital bill this time.

It does look better. I'm glad. Mama out.

Oh my goodness! I missed the original post! I'm glad you are hanging in there. That looks pretty uncomfortable. :( Maybe comfrey would help with the swelling and pain? It will also help speed up the healing process.

Well, when in Rome.

I would think if you got bit where the venom would get to your blood stream you would have gotten the anti venom.

I am curious if you will have any lasting numbness or nerve damage from the swelling. Not super common but happens.

Yeah, I'm kind of hoping NOT on that last one, time will tell

Nerves regrow and reconnect so it can fade if it does happen. I cut a tendon in my left middle finger and it took about 3 years before the nerves all reconnected. You have good movement so hopefully you are good to go.

Oh no! Get well soon @papa-pepper!

Get well soon Papa..we missed your video..God Bless stay strong

Time for one of those 3 foot long sticks!
Glad to see the movement you do have is getting better!

Dang bro! Hope you get better soon 🙏

get well soon sir

Crazy bastard. Be careful with the scale and fanged ones..!

LOL - I'll google this "careful" you speak of and see what I can do
