Winged injection

Danielle

The guides at sea speak the truth - the pain is terrible. The first aid is hot water. Symptoms appear after a day - dizziness, pressure. In general, it's not very pleasant. Lesha, thank you for the prompt advice, otherwise it would have been worse.

From personal experience, while diving in the Indian Ocean, I found a coral that I liked, swam closer, and to get a better shot, I leaned my hand on the reef. I felt pain; what seemed like a stone turned out to be fire coral (Fire corals are not actually corals. They live among real corals but are themselves false corals.) As a result, the wound didn't heal for six months, and eczema-like rashes persisted for about two years. That's such ... nonsense, kids!

I didn't understand "very hot up to 45" here. Maybe I made a mistake.

Max, are you sure? Google and find out what the safe temperature is for the human body. Most people, including me, can't get into a bath at +45°C and sit there, but I can dip my hands in and hold them. I tried to hold them in even hotter water, but then my skin burned from the hot water.

I got stung by a sea urchin in the Red Sea - it passed within an hour without consequences. I also burned myself on fire coral - it took a couple of months to heal, and the scars remain. Apparently, it doesn't cause any habituation, or only to the corresponding venom. Uh-huh. But the rest doesn't seem necessary to me.

Dennis

Well, thank God you spoke up, otherwise you got a shot, wrote it down, and the little green light went out, and we were left guessing whether you had a runny nose or not.

Well, I got into that. Apparently because of the pressure. You won't wait. We'll still dive together.

Damn, the only thing left is for a shark to bite you, otherwise I've tried everything, oh I don't know if the Black Sea dragon bit you or if it was something really cool like an astrologer?

Christine864

No, I only got stung by jellyfish in the Black Sea.

When fishing on the Southern Coast, the locals always kept some alcohol or vodka handy in case they got stung by a dragonfly (and the unfortunate horse mackerel fishermen often had to remove them from the hook), they would pour alcohol on the wound and it would be fine. Maybe alcohol would help with the winged ones too, as it seems to break down toxins. I never got stung myself. But scorpions and spiders bit me—alcohol saved me.

Strange. The shards of the tiara's needles "disappeared" without a trace within an hour. I pricked my fingers and didn't even get out of the water; when I did, they were already gone. And it's really not worth climbing on the corals, whether in flip-flops or not.

I have seen various injections, from simple ones like pricking a finger in an area of skin where there is no bleeding, to multiple punctures of the foot, where the skin was pierced down to the muscle tissue, with bleeding and broken needles.

Specifically, I only injected it under the skin. There was pain, but it was mild. I wonder what causes them to dissolve under the skin?

Probably the blood absorbs them - the first time I tried to gather the needles in a pile and lift the hedgehog out of the water in Taba - everything was fine until I brought it to the surface, then it was like a shot - and a dozen needles came out the other side of my palm - the pain was terrible, the needles left dots on both sides like tattoos, after a few days it passed and the dots dissolved... but the Sri Lankan ones took a couple of days for the last one to come out - thick, long, like boot nails - I didn't dare to cut them - it would have meant tearing up my whole leg - they took a month to come out... fun.
