How Snake bite, Venom and Antivenom works.

Snakes can never be a friendly animal to me

At all

Remember try to identity the kind of snake when bitten to be able to get the right anti-venom

Nice advice

Thanks 🙏

Snake bites → venom enters your body → attacks nerves, blood, or tissue. Antivenom comes in like a superhero, neutralizing that venom

Dişleri çok ürkütücü..

Mind you, snakes only attack victims when they feel threatened. The whole idea of snakes being threatened is that they’re afraid of being killed so whenever they feel or sense threats they tend to attack faster.

My phobia for snakes just went from 100 to 1000

This looks scary.

so why God created such animal?

Even watching this video gives me shivers. I hate snakes

I'll pitch my tent with avoiding the snake bite. That way I don't get to find out how what works or doesn't work.

Snakes, are mostly frightening. However, not all snakes bite. Some are friendly like ball python, while some very dangerous. From experience, snakes hardly attack human. At first sight, it always run to safety. But if you decide to go after it, then be ready for its attack.

Me and Snake can never be friendly. Even the antivenom is giving me a panic attack already.

- The post's animated video accurately depicts snake fangs as hypodermic needles connected to venom glands that inject toxin mixtures into the bloodstream, rapidly disrupting nerves, blood clotting, or tissues, as confirmed by peer-reviewed studies on venom multifunctionality (e.g., Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2019). - Antivenom counters this by introducing antibodies that bind and neutralize venom molecules, halting cellular damage and aiding recovery, though efficacy depends on timely, species-matched administration, per research in Science Translational Medicine (2024). - Posted by Nigerian doctor Dr. Sina amid Africa's high snakebite burden—Nigeria sees 15,000-20,000 cases yearly, third globally—the thread sparks discussions on identification and fear, highlighting antivenom access challenges in the region (WHO data).
