Recently, Mr. Wu of Guangzhou was accidentally injured by jellyfish during his surfing in Huizhou. At that time, he had tingling, no significant swelling and limited activity. On the same day, he went to the local hospital for treatment. However, two days later, Mr. Wu's ankle pain became more severe, and he had redness, blisters, and leakage.

Later, Mr. Wu dragged his swollen and bloody right leg to the third affiliated hospital of Southern Medical University (hereinafter referred to as the "South Medical Hospital"). After more than a week of treatment, Mr. Wu was finally discharged from the hospital.

If you do not deal with it in time, the consequences of infection are unimaginable

When Mr. Wu was admitted to the hospital, his right foot, right ankle swelling, pain, skin ulcers, pus, limited calf movement, could not walk. Li Runguang, chief physician of the ankle surgery of Nanyi Hospital, said: "If the patient's situation at the time was not treated in time, it was likely to face the risk of further diffusion in infection. Once invading deep fascia, it would lead to necrotic fasciitis. "

The medical team carefully inspected the affected area, cleaned the jellyfish residual tentacles and patient's leg necrosis tissue, cleaned pus, and gave antibiotics anti -infection and anti -allergic treatment. After three days of bed treatment, ulcers of the affected area began to crust, and swollen and faded a lot.

After more than a week of treatment, the patient's leg infection was controlled, the swelling and pain improved significantly, and the wound was clean.

If you are injured by jellyfish, deal with it correctly

"Don't panic after being injured by marine animals. First of all, remove its tentacles to prevent follow -up harm." Li Runguang introduced that the tentacles from the mother can continue to release the stab cells. Therefore Otherwise, when the wound is treated, the tentacles are squeezed or stimulated to shoot more stabbing cells.

If the jellyfish's tentacles are still hanging on the skin, try to get it down, or find a way to lose their activity -to ensure that the wounded should not move. If possible, wear gloves to remove the tentacles, or use thick clothes, dumplings, small wooden sticks, etc., and gently separate the jellyfish tentacles from the skin.

The basic principle is: the skin cannot be directly exposed to the jellyfish tentacles, and the minimum degree reduces the movement of the tentacle on the skin of the injured.

Be sure to rinse with seawater. Next, rinse the wounded parts with seawater to inhibit the activity of unprepared thoring cells on the skin.

Be sure not to use fresh water, otherwise there will be the opposite effect. Any move that changes the concentration of the inner and outer solution in the stab cells may stimulate the ejection of the thorns, and release more venom. It is also a good way to suppress the activity of the stab cells.

Scrape off the cells. If possible, you can also use a knife or shaving knife, card and the like to gently separate the thorns on the skin.

It will be better to apply a shaver or soap foam before scraping cells. After scraping the stabbing cells, re -apply it with vinegar or brine solution, or rinse with seawater.

Finally, let the wounded parts dry naturally. You can take some anti -tissue drugs, such as benzene -prone, or apply hydrogenated milk cream to reduce itching and swelling. In subsequent treatment, you need to clean the open mouth every day and apply antibiotic ointment to prevent bacterial infections. The pain of most jellyfish injuries began to fade within 10 minutes after treatment, and basically eliminated within 24 hours.
