The Malayan Pit Viper’s hemotoxic venom can silently damage blood and tissue, making every bite a serious medical emergency.
Typical signs include:
- Severe swelling
- Intense pain
- Bruising and bleeding
- Progressive tissue injury
⚠️ A dangerous myth is that snake bites are only serious if the victim collapses immediately. In reality, hemotoxic venom can cause hidden internal damage while symptoms worsen gradually.
What should you do?
✔️ Keep the bitten limb immobilized
✔️ Stay calm
✔️ Seek professional medical care quickly
What should you avoid?
❌ Applying ice directly
❌ Cutting the wound
❌ Trying to remove venom manually
