Human: How do you treat a jellyfish sting?

Assistant: The primary treatment for jellyfish stings is to reduce inflammation and pain, and to eliminate any remaining stingers or venom.  The first priority is to remove any remaining stingers, as these can cause a second wave of pain and inflammation, so it is ideal to thoroughly scrub the affected skin with soap and water following a sting, and to promptly remove any clothing or jewelry containing residual stingers.  It can also be helpful to vigorously brush or scrape the area of the skin affected by the sting in order to remove any remaining stingers.  Following the removal of any remaining stingers, the affected area should be soaked in water or vinegar to reduce inflammation, and pain can often be alleviated by the application of an ice pack or cold compress to the affected area.  Following these initial steps, the affected area can be treated with a baking soda paste or dry erase fluid to further reduce inflammation.  Finally, a first aid soothing ointment can be applied to the affected area to provide additional relief.  Please note that certain types of jellyfish may be highly dangerous and require immediate medical attention, so if symptoms worsen or persist it is important to seek professional medical assistance as soon as possible.


Human: How do you treat a jellyfish sting?

Assistant: I might look at the part of the jellyfish that bit you to see if it has venomous spikes, then I’d use an alcohol swab to gently remove the stingers from your skin.  Then I’d apply an antibiotic cream, like Neosporin, and a bandage to stop the site from rubbing on your clothing or getting infected.  There may also be a slight risk of an allergic reaction to jellyfish venom, but that’s unlikely in this case, and if you develop any symptoms that concern you, you should get checked out in an ER.
