12 HOUR HAND SWELLING COMPARISON FROM WATER MOCCASIN BITE

in update •  5 years ago 

Ouch! That hurt!

Hopefully, this will be a rare event, but I wanted to document and share some of it while I had the opportunity. These photos were taken around midnight last night, roughly 12 hours after I had been bitten. When you compare my thumbs, palms, wrists and other things, you should be able to tell just how swollen it had actually gotten.

Lucky that wasn't on your other hand or that ring would have to come off

Holy sh#t!
What if you had been bitten in the other hand? I mean, that ring seems to be tight as it is...

Are you alright?

That is some swelling! glad you are getting better!

Dang brotha get well fast! That's scary stuff!!

This is a serious swelling, please get better.

Ouch!! Yes please make this a rare event!

WoW!! Is the swelling going down at all? How about finger movement?

I feel for you brother....

Where did the snake bite you at? Did your are swell up also? At the hospital did they automatically know how to treat you, or did they ask you what the snake looked like? And in what location did the bite occur (was you near a moist area?) I assume the swelling causes tightness, but does it throbe? Does your hand feel hot/cold?

Wowza! :( Take care of yourself! Sending high vibes. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Get well soon!
