Best Treatment for Millipede Burns

What’s the best treatment for a blister caused by a millipede? Millipedes are worm-like bugs. Certain types of millipedes release a harmful substance (toxin) all over their body if they are threatened or if you handle them roughly. Unlike centipedes, millipedes do not bite or sting. The toxin that millipedes release keeps away most predators. Some large millipede species can spray these toxins as far as 32 inches (80 cm). Possible to be allergic to millipedes While the liquid millipedes emit isn’t toxic to humans, it’s possible to have skin irritation or even be allergic to it. If you’re allergic to millipedes, you might notice the following symptoms after handling them: • blisters or hives • redness • rash • itchiness and/or burning Millipede toxin can cause blisters and burns. Wash your skin right away, even if you don’t think a millipede has emitted any liquid onto your skin. This can help prevent a possible allergic reaction. If you develop blisters as a result of handling millipedes, wash your skin with lukewarm water and regular soap. Aloe vera gel can also help soothe the blisters. Over-the-counter antihistamine such as Benadryl may help with an itchy rash. You may also treat the rash with a soothing topical, such as oatmeal lotion or hydrocortisone cream. Be careful not to rub your eyes after handling millipedes. The arthropod’s toxins can lead to conjunctivitis and other uncomfortable eye issues. Wash your hands thoroughly after handling them, even if you don’t think you’re allergic or have any other type of reaction to millipedes. Severe allergic reactions are rare A millipede allergic reaction is rarely life-threatening. However, you should seek emergency medical care if you experience any of the following symptoms of a severe allergic reaction: • facial swelling • breathing difficulties • rapid heart rate • widespread rash • unconsciousness ** Credit by Kristeen Cherney from healthline.com ** Medically reviewed by Stacy Sampson, D.O. #millipedes #millipedebite #millipedeburn ************************ Subscription FRESH HOME 24 Channel https://goo.gl/aUVCmU ✌ Thanks for watching.
