my brother just got bit by a black widow what do we do?? please help A.S.A.P.! thank you sooooooo much!!
Answer:
The options for home care are somewhat limited. Both cold and warm compresses have been recommended, as have hot baths. Certainly, a hot bath would seem to be of value because the pain is due primarily to muscle spasm. Obviously, over-the-counter pain relievers such as acetaminophen and ibuprofen may be of value in mild cases. Folk remedies have not proven to work, so i would take him to the hospital!! asap!! Peace!!
I would call 911!!
go to the ER
Its reputation exceeds its bite. If your brother is 3 or younger, or frail and elderly, this might be a true emergency, but otherwise, just call your doctor's office (yes, even on the weekend) and ask if they need to see him. If not, ask what treatment they recommend.
call /911 / NOW
are you sure? they're kind of rare depending where you are. why not get off the computer and call 911?
Emergency roommmmm NOWWWWWWW! My aunt was bitten by a brown recluse and she had to have part of her leg removed. I think Black Widows are a little more dangerous!
