Thousands of people in Africa annually die as a result of snake bites. But when the snake bites, you need to keep calm and stop movements.

Keeping the affected part of the body below heart level sometimes reduces on the high flow of venom to the heart. Medical experts in Kampala told this reporter that putting on rings, anklets and bracelets may make the site the snake has bitten to swell.

Also note that most snakes in Africa are poisonous. When a poisonous snake bites someone, that person’s temperature, blood pressure, pulse of the heart and the breathing rate begins to reduce meaning that the person is about to die. When the snake bites someone, rush him or her to the nearest health centre as soon as possible.
