Very helpful video. People also need to understand that Satellite messengers (Spot / Garmin Inreach, etc.) aren't Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs). Personal Locator Beacons (PLBs) can transmit at 5 watts power (versus 1.6 for sat messengers), allowing them to punch thru poor conditions better than sat messengers. PLBs have enough power to transmit directly to geostationary satellites, which orbit at 22,000 miles in space, something sat messengers can't do. The one advantage of subscription sat messengers over PLBs is the ability to send two way, non-emergency messages to family and friends. That capability might be worth paying for, in remote places where there's no hope of catching a cell signal. But for a real life and death emergency in unknown conditions, when time counts, anywhere on Earth, a PLB is what you want.

I was bit once by a poisonous frog/toad. It made my arm go numb and it made me very tired. Fortunately it wore off and I recovered fully.

Thank you, very helpful

What about charcoal supplement ?

I managed to dislocate my shoulder in my sleep

The hicky joke really took away from the credibility not worth it

Great video but I hear him say “keep your arm above your heart, head to the ER”, what if it’s (more likely) your ankle? Foot on the dashboard, your handlebars?

I got hape once without knowing what it was and like Mary I am usually the person at the front of the pack, but not that day. Well I woke up after laying down for two hours to the feeling of breathing through a straw about to have a heart attack, luckily we were off the mountain at that point becuase if we weren't I would've needed a heli rescue. I feel like information on hape and hace isn't known well enough by the general public.

i would find the clay and neutralise it bandage and ceawl to dr leech

Stress can also affect bowel consistency in some people.

But I still haven’t found out when to amputate….

After a rattlesnake bite, how long do you have to get to the hospital? Some say 30-minutes, others say 2-hours. Which is it? We all know the sooner the better, but in managing the situation a more exact time is helpful.

The way she looks at him… 😂

When I was a kid in the 80s, we would have snakebite kits with anti-venom and we would test on ourselves, for allergic reaction , ( cost way less back then ) so we would know if we could use it out in the middle of nowhere

Thanks man I work outside alot

Come emidetle and coaling.Bangladesh 🇧🇩

Terrtmant premant 2,poent.

Ana konda sneik.

Im all Badsha👑 my trretmant tepc ywear me.

For the record you can encounter them on a trail

So in other words, if you get bit in the middle of nowhere, and can't get to a hospital, you're a gonner. Nothing in this day and age you can carry to give you fighting chance? Unbelievable..😬

You shouldn't drink in the wilderness *if you want to survive

So, instead of paying attention like I should, I was just wondering why you didn't refer to your niece by her name, but just insisted on calling her "the niece". I am not a smart man. Anyway, all the best to your and the niece, hope she recovers well.

Why dont first aid kits have a snake bite bandage that draws out poisons? Be practical.

Can these symptoms persist for several weeks after leaving high altitude and returning to lower altitude?

what is the video called where you showed how to put the person in there, considering spinal injury?

Yes, everyone talks about immediate hospitalization. And it is very good info because it accepts a case when help is really far away. Me personally, didn't saw nothing really informative, except this explanation and maybe compression bandage method from Australia. though there is none poisonous snakes in my country, I sometimes, still checking for info about snakebites and everyone says don't do anything radical, keep calm, search for medical help(yes, it's very easy to search for help and keep calm and not move, when your lifeline is in danger :D), if there is no help? than what? calmly DIE??? urban people sometimes are so naive and narrowsighted... If you are bitten by something clearly deadly, I think algorithm of actions are such: 1. kill the snake (a. avenge! "sweet" avenge, b. take as evidence what specifically bite you) 2. do temporary tourniquet, 3. cut bite area and remove as much organic fluid as you can. 4. desinfect area using lighter, 5. do compression bandage. |That 1to5 takes less then 3-5min, I think. 6. don't remove tourniquet (change it with proper one-that will not damage muscles as quickly), life is still so much dear than knee(and sometimes limbs are saved after prolonged use of this lifesaver), 7. go with nearest area where are humans with transportation capabilities, or at least to area, where cell phone will work. use short stick while walking slowly to relieve pressure on sore foot. ........ If help is really far, maybe more than 70-100km (we are 8billions and this would be very rare case, and if that is a case, seems you are far from ocean and most likely are stricken by viper that very often are not so deadly) I would omit going long journey and would removed tourniquet. instead I would mark place(if possible) in such ways to be seen from air, and would go shelter with some reserves of water. than wait for help, or organism's imune system to handle venom, or END. ___If you found my comment very dangerous and misinformative, than be kind and describe concretely what to do, when there is no hospitals and civilization are many hours or days away.

hike 10 day on 4350 Metter Mt my weight 160 pound how much should i take this medicines? (1/2 - 125 mg twice a day?) thanks you.

Sunglasses (and reading glasses) from Dollar Tree work well for me.

Doc thank you very much. How about Cipro and Tinidazole together? Do they work for the same condition?

DIATOMACEOUS EARTH

This is dumber than dog s***If you are out in the wilderness and you get bit by a snake. How do you think the romance in the Egyptian survived? This guy's like he had a cell phone. Will be great, the f*** are you f****** stupid?

It works

_Above_ the heart?? My uneducated thought would be to get the bite _BELOW_ the heart to slow the spread. Seems contradictory to both apply a light tourniquet AND allow gravity to get the blood to the heart sooner than later. What am I missing? (Just a drummer.😉)

I think what makes them worth carrying is they're super cheap and take up almost no room. And they do have uses, just don't take them too seriously.

Wait …. You are pooping eucalyptus? Or English ivy? I usually have native runs

If one is not hear help, what is the best way to "treat" or disinfect a bite if you believe it to be a dry bite?

I’m here for the Jim Carrey comments 😂

My mother got HACE at high altitude in Colorado. We'd spent nearly a week at altitudes ranging from 10,000 to 13,000 feet and thought nothing of it because we'd lived in Leadville for many years decades ago, and my parents had always lived in high-altitude mining towns in the mountains. She didn't get nauseated, but she had a headache, got more and more confused and disoriented, had ataxia (she staggered and had a wide, unsteady gait while walking and had to be supported), was uncoordinated and unable to dress herself, and had frank hallucinations. She was also lethargic, falling asleep and difficult to arouse. When finally aroused, she would only respond to questions in monosyllables. My dad thought she was having a stroke, but as an RN, I thought the symptoms were more like HACE and knew that we had to descend quickly from the remote area we were in and get her to a hospital. Sure enough, when we got her down to 5,000 feet, she seemed to recover completely. I still had her checked out with an MRI at the nearest hospital ED to make sure she had not had any kind of brain infarct. She's 80 and had a hemorrhagic stroke due to an aneurysm years ago,, from which she had recovered well. But cerebrovascular disease can make one prone to problems at altitude. She's now forbidden to visit our old haunts in Colorado.

My elderly mother got HACE after spending several days at high elevations (over 10,000 feet) in Colorado. She'd had a stroke years before, and at first her symptoms were worrisome for a stroke, but she also had headache, lethargy, disorientation, hallucinations, delusions, and ataxia which led me to believe she was experiencing HACE. At the time we were in a remote area without medical services, so, as an RN myself, I knew the only thing we could do was to get her down to a much lower elevation as soon as possible. At 5,000 feet, she recovered almost miraculously, but I had her checked out with an MRI at the nearest hospital ED just to be sure she hadn't experienced a brain bleed (her previous stroke had been hemorrhagic due to a small aneurysm). Tourists need to be aware that AMS, HAPE, and HACE can affect anyone at altitudes like you find in the mountains of Colorado; especially the elderly. It's not just an affliction of fit young mountaineers in the Himalayas or Andes. Even if you've lived at high altitude (we were returning to Colorado where us kids grew up in Leadville at over 10,000 feet, after an absence of several decades), you can still get it.

cro fab doesn't work for coral snakes

Thank you for the numbers. I’ve lived at sea level (Hawaii) for all my life. I’m very physically active (canoe paddling, kayaking, hiking, weight training, etc). . I’m visiting my son in Colorado and was unprepared for the altitude symptoms (decreased activity tolerance, loss of appetite, weight loss). A friend suggested canned peaches with baby aspirin, which helps to some extent. Did not want to do Diamox nor take any medications. Are there any ways to prevent the symptoms ahead of time so that when I visit Colorado, I can do more active things without the symptoms? I see some of the military climbers in my Hawaii using restrictive masks while climbing..

A food vacuum food saver does a very good job getting these back to a small package, not as small as the original but close

What's the best thing to do if you get bit by a rattlesnake an your on a rough dirt road? Is it better to just drive to the ER or not risk the movements from a rough road an ask for a care flight? And same question but with a small child? Thank you

I put mine back in myself by leaning over forward and to the side and moved my arm a little

Acetazolamide taken for 2 days before ascent to high altitude is effective prophylaxis for acute mountain sickness.
