I've been bitten ! 😱

[Kiki]

I was walking around my yard looking for a piece of bark to put in an aquarium and started running toward the wood pile , and of course I just had to be bare foot at the time, and I got bitten by a COPPERHEAD !
My mom blended up some plantain and applied it , but I just want to hear your opinion ! ? !

Thanks in advance
Josh

Where were you bit? Can you post a picture of the bite wound?
Did it break your skin?

I'm doing good ! My foots just swelling a little which is normal !
( No I didn't go to the hospital )

I really think you should go. Copperheads are nothing to mess with.

I only want hear your guys's ideas on home remedies !

This is my home remedy. Go to the hospital! You could lose your foot if you don't get this taken care of properly. The longer you wait, the worse it's going to get.

Google says most patients don't even receive antivenom for cop bites ..... And that indains have been using plantain to cure rattlesnake bites for a long time .

Home remedy:

Bite a belt, pour a bottle of whiskey in it. Drink another bottle of whiskey and pass out in the barn, so it’s easier to move your body later.



good luck. Hope it works out or possibly was a different type of snake.
