[QUOTE="wiley coyote, post: 673579, member: 7587"] In the snake bite directions on google etc. It states that you start the bandage from the lower end of the limb bitten. Toes and fingers. If the bite is on say, your knee, then bandage it from the toes to the groin. I feel that if you start below the bite, and bandage upwards, that you would be pushing the venom upwards in the lymphatic system toward your heart and brain. Sort of, like squeezing a half empty tube of toothpaste from the bottom up to get the remaining paste out of the bottom of the tube upto the spout. Wouldn't it be better to bandage it downward to push the venom lower, or keep it near the bite? I've asked two so called snake experts, and they haven't been able to give me a definitive answer. Can anyone on here help? wiley. [/QUOTE]
