If the snake is still attached use a stick or tool to make it let go.Remove anything tight from around the bitten part of the body (e.g.: rings, anklets, bracelets) as these can cause harm if swelling occursAvoid traditional first aid methods, herbal medicines and other unproven or unsafe forms of first aidCall Ambulance and transport the person to health facility as soon as possible Paracetamol may be given for local painKEEP CALM !!!

Dog Bite Wash the wound. Use mild soap, and run warm tap water over it for five to 10 minutesSlow the bleeding with a clean cloth.Apply over-the counter antibiotic cream if you have it.Wrap the wound in a sterile bandageKeep the wound bandaged and see your doctor as soon as possible Watch for signs of infection, including redness, swelling, increased pain and fever.

Fracture If the person is unconscious, has difficulty breathing or is bleeding severely, these must be dealt with first, by controlling the bleeding with direct pressure and performing CPR.If the person is conscious, prevent any further pain or damage by keeping the fracture as still as possible until you get them safely to hospital.If it's obvious they have a broken leg, don't move them, but keep them in the position you found them in and phone an ambulanceIf you suspect they have injured or broken his back, don't move him and phone an ambulanceDon't give the casualty anything to eat or drink, because they may need an anaesthetic (numbing medication) when they reach hospital.Get medical help As-soon-as-possible

Bee Bite Wash the sting site with soap and water. Icing the sting site is the most effective way to reduce venom absorption. It also can help reduce swelling.If a honeybee stings you remove the stinger immediately with the edge of your fingernail or the edge of a credit card, this helps curb the amount of toxins released into your skin.If you experience any symptoms of a serious allergic reaction, such as difficulty breathing, hives, or dizziness, call your local emergency services. Don’t attempt to drive yourself to the emergency room.

Nose BleedingSit down and firmly pinch the soft part of your nose, just above your nostrils, for at least 10-15 minutesLean forward and breathe through your mouth – this will drain blood into your nose instead of down the back of your throatPlace an ice pack or bag of frozen vegetables covered by a towel on the bridge of your noseStay upright, rather than lying down, as this reduces the blood pressure in the blood vessels of your nose and will discourage further bleeding

Blood Vomiting Call an ambulance or go directly to the nearest emergency department!!!Be calm and reach and get medical help as soon as possible.

Ankle SprainRest the ankleCompress (wrap) the ankle lightly -- not tightly -- with an elastic bandage or ankle braceGo to the emergency room if you have any of the following symptoms: Severe pain, bruising, or severe swelling Bleeding, numbness, or change in color of the affected area Your ankle looks deformed or seems dislocated You can't put any weight on it

If not, move the source away from you and the person, using a dry, nonconducting object made of cardboard, plastic or wood.Call Ambulance Immidiately Begin CPR if the person shows no signs of circulation, such as breathing, coughing or movementTry to prevent the injured person from becoming chilled.Apply a bandage. Cover any burned areas with a sterile gauze bandage, if available, or a clean cloth. Don't use a blanket or towel, because loose fibers can stick to the burns

Heart AttackCall Ambulance Immidiately If you can't get an ambulance or emergency vehicle to come to you, have a neighbor or a friend drive you to the nearest hospital. Drive yourself only if you have no other option. Chew and swallow an aspirin while waiting for emergency help. Aspirin helps keep your blood from clotting.Begin CPR if the person is unconscious.
