Jellyfish

[MarisaGStudent]

Hi Doc,

I will soon head to the sea for the holidays, and I wondered if the herbs used for venomous bites-stings apply to jellyfish stings too?

Like plantain, yarrow… Maybe best to have the dried herbs and fresh water to do a poultice instead of spraying a tincture?

I would like to prepare a first-aid kit to have at the beach, just in case.

thanks!

I’ve never used the Venom & Sting Formula for jellyfish tings. I’ve heard vinegar is quite good. Put it on first and then remove the tentacles with some tweezers. If you scrape them off, they will release more venom.

Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
