Drug and alcohol abuse is a mental disorder that affects people livelihood. Learning to bring awareness is important when they’re sober makes sense. My newborn father is an alcoholic and it’s really scary to experience this. Knowing how to handle the situation when they’re unconscious or conscious is really helpful.

Alum power used for pickling. Make a paste with water. Dab on the sting. Let it dry. Literally will suck the poison of out of the wound. I bought a huge bottle and have little alum baggies every where. It actually works
those metal things are button batteries and what there explaining is that sometimes a kid may swallow them and it can sometimes burn a hole in there esophagus or idk somewhere and cause death so there showing that honey helps to kinda stop it from burning a hole or anything like that while tha no honey is acid burned (god I’m wasting my time and I feel like a nerd🤦) and if ya don’t get it don’t reply
I was stung by a wasp on June 30th, and now, on July 7th, it has decided to have a reaction with a red rash and like a white circle around the sting site. Contemplating going to the doctor or not. It depends on if my rash spreads anymore. I have never had this happen to me before, and I have been stung by wasps and yellow jackets before!!
Yesterday during UTI treatment my male pershion cat got heart attack. While providing him DNS with some antibiotics and multivitamin. Does it cause him heart attack ?
Idk if I've survived the Sepsis or I'm in danger. What should the blood test result say? All year has been in and out of hospital due to osteoporosis destoying my spine, one fractured vertibrae after another. During one of the hospitalists had been giving me an antibiotic IV. He was and has been the only doctor to tell me that I have Sepsis. Not even the nurses had told me. Anyhow, I informed the doctor that I get terrible yeast infections from antibiotics. If you had told me your plan of action, I could have helped you think this through. Why no Probiotic? The Dr acted surprised that I hadn't received an Antibiotic. The Dr then threw the responsibility on the nurses. Ridiculous. Why hadn't he prescribed one for them to give? I still not able to walk on my own, since I need more surgery. I've been disgnosed with five autoimmune diseases. What would you do if in my situation?
I just saved my little pug puppy. We only brought him into our family a month ago; he is my first dog. I didn't expect him to choke on his food. It was terrifying, and I acted on instinct, cleaning his mouth and pressing on his lungs. I didn’t understand how to apply this technique to a dog. By some miracle, after a minute of madness, I saved him. Then we sat silently in each other’s arms for two minutes. Now he is sleeping, and I’m watching this video and sending it to all my family members. Never leave your dog alone with food.
I'm so sorry that happened, it sounds very stressful and I'm so glad that he is alright now. As you said, many dog owners aren't aware of how common these incidents can happen. We recommend that all dog owners have some first aid knowledge. If you would like to complete a First Aid for Dogs course, follow this link firstaidforpets.net/dog-first-aid-online/
Great information that I hope to never use. 👍 😅 I did pinch my finger tip pretty good last week, iced it for 15 min on, 15 min off for a few cycles. Thought for certain I’d lose my nail as it swelled fairly hard and bruised, but was lucky to have healed up, still sore but no long term damage. No thanks to gravity. 😢
I adore your lessons…binge watching as a 1st Aid refresher. When you pulled down the victim’s shirt over his tummy, without missing a beat 👍 …so vigilant and respectful. ❤ from 🇨🇦
7 years later and this has everything you need. Thank you for the serious reality of the situation in regards to severe pain it causes and the begging for removal. Thank you for the video and I hope to never need to use this. 🤞
I think my you youngest cat was choking on his treats a couple of hours ago, he was making wheezing noises So I started patting his back and then massaging his throat to see if I could feel anything I'm not too sure now but I thought I felt the treat in his throat but I continued to pat his back and massage his throat because he continued to make the noise while his parents watched I was still massaging his throat when he stopped wheezing so I think I got the treat to go down They'll now be getting the treats smaller They're those chocolate treats that come in little squares I normally break them into 4 and give it to them but nope, now it'll be 1 since he apparently was inhaling it
They also tell people Lavender but i found something strong and attacking gor a smell snaps me to faster. I also find music(songs my parents listened to) stand-up comedy, a chanfe of where Im at (outside or inside), tart or lemon tastes, and or a cold shower. I hope that helps someone and I cant wait to read what all your viewers write to help. Alcohol is fast vut nit the solution! In the ling run it makes ut worse.
Someone telling me to calm down makes it worse. God for give me if they tell me to breathe. It freaks me out so bad. I'm like what? Am I not breathing well? They I hyperventilate. Sooo in short you should edit that because I know many people that get freaked about it.
I THINK I got a wasp sting on the bottom of my foot. I saw the stinger and pulled it out. It's been about a week and it itches me to death. it's still swollen and it itches so bad that ! I have Sarna...anti itch cream, but it doesn't last long enough. I haven't don't the cold/ice treatment yet.. If this goes on much longer, I may have to see a Dr.
