**A snake bite is always a potential medical emergency—do not try to judge severity from pain, marks, or appearance.** Move everyone safely away from the snake without chasing, trapping, or handling it (even if it appears dead); call emergency services immediately, keep the victim calm and still, support the bitten limb in a neutral position, and remove rings/watches/restrictive items early. Avoid all folk remedies: never cut, suck, ice, shock, tourniquet, massage, or apply chemicals. Only professionals decide on antivenom, labs, or supportive care after evaluation; symptoms can be delayed or minimal at first. Prioritize rapid transport over any home treatment, follow local emergency guidance (recommendations vary by region and species), and prevent bites by watching where you step/reach, using lights and proper footwear, and teaching children never to approach snakes.
