With the summer season coming
Many parents will arrange a parent-child travel plan
In the hot summer, the seaside is naturally the first choice
however
Seemingly calm and beautiful beach
There may also be unknown dangers hidden!
Recently, the Shenzhen Health Commission issued a reminder:
Go to the beach and play
Don't touch this "plastic bag"!
What is a "plastic bag"?
This creature resembles a plastic bag and a balloon
It's a highly poisonous monk's hat jellyfish!

It is no less poisonous than a cobra
In severe cases, it can be fatal
It is reported almost every year
In case of accidental jellyfish sting, the contact site may appear -
- sudden onset of pain;
- linear, erythematous urticaria-like lesions appear minutes later (or hours later);
- A burning sensation that is intense, or accompanied by itching or fluctuating.
In addition to causing local reactions, some species of jellyfish may cause systemic symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, muscle cramps, headaches, etc.
Jellyfish generally do not actively attack people, and when you go to the beach in the summer, you will be fine when you see it and stay away immediately.
But just in case, you still have to remember this "5 steps after being stung by a jellyfish" -
1. Get out of the water first;
2. Do not rub the stinged area;
3. Rinse the sting with seawater;
4. If possible, wear gloves and use tools such as tweezers or chopsticks to remove jellyfish tentacles;
5. Seek medical attention promptly.
