The Department of Positive Resuscitation - Anti -Poisoning has recently received 3 cases of mountain green snakes with swollen symptoms, very dangerous coagulation disorders.
Typically, the case of a female patient, 56 years old, went to the hospital for the reason for being bitten by a green snake after stepping on the house.The location is swollen and spread quickly for a few hours, blood tests show that there is progressive coagulation disorder.
The patient was immediately cleaned the wound, managed according to the green -biting solid regimen and was being treated, monitored at the Department of Positive Resuscitation - Anti -Poison.What makes doctors worried is that the local area - the residence of these patients who had previously not recorded cases of mountain green snakes.
This proves that the appearance of snakes is changing.The reason is that in the rainy season, the amount of water rises, snakes often move more to search for new residence or find food sources.Heavy rains and floods can lose their natural habitats, causing them to find areas closer to humans, such as garden, housing, or flooded lands..
In addition, heavy rains can also create a humid and ideal environment for the development of insects - a favorite food source of snakes.Therefore, the risk of snake bite, especially the poisonous snakes are increasing in the rainy season.
To reduce the risk of snakes, especially poisonous snakes such as mountain green snakes after the rainy season, doctors recommend: People need to clean the area around the house.Keep the area around the house clean and tidy.Clean up garbage, weeds, and construction materials can be an ideal shelter for snakes.
When moving through areas that are likely to appear solid, such as gardens, fields, or areas that have not been checked, be careful and use the flashlight at night to detect the presence of snakes early.
When working outdoors or in high -risk areas, wear protective clothes like rubber boots and pants to reduce the possibility of being bitten.
