E. Clean the bitten area with soap and water. Cover it with a clean and dry dressing. Get to a doctor at once and tell him or her what kind of snake it is or describe the situation.

F. To help someone whose nose is bleeding, make him sit up or place something cold on the bridge of the nose. Don't be nervous, and breathe through the mouth.
