Yeah I think I will take my rings off actually, thanks!
Unfortunately snake bites dont tend to leave cool scars, I've had so many bites over the years and the only scar I've really got on my hand is a bite off a guinea pig haha!! |

Doesn't that need medical attention?
My husband's (now ex) hand swelled up like that after clearing and redoing the pond. Unknown to him he must have had a small cut or similar and by the evening his hand was enormous. He went to A&E the next morning and was given a course of antibiotics. There was someone on another forum who had a snake bite him and leave a tooth in his hand! |
