Snake Bites Rise in Monsoon: Expert Advice

During the monsoon, snakes come out more.

This means more people might get bitten.

If you see a snake, don't run, step back slowly and let it leave.

If bitten, stay calm, and don't move too much.

Wash the bite, put a bandage on it, and keep the bitten part lower than your heart.

Don’t try to suck out the poison or use things like alcohol.

Go to the hospital right away because the bite could be serious, even if you don’t feel bad at first.
