A 44-year-old woman was hiking in a state park when she was bitten by a snake in her left calf. To get help, she had to hike four miles to the first-aid station where you are located. The hike took her one and a half hours. Your assessment reveals a red and swollen area to her leg, and she complains of discomfort to that area. Closer inspection reveals two puncture wounds in the center of the

affected area. She asks you if she is going to die from the snake bite. Which one of the following is the BEST reply? A) "Based on the way the bite looks, I think that you were bitten by a nonpoisonous snake." B) "Walking all of that distance probably saved you since your body metabolized the poison faster." C) "You need to get checked out, but if venom was injected, the signs and symptoms of a generalized reaction typically appear very quickly." D) "We need to get you to the hospital immediately. Anytime that a snake bites it injects venom from its fangs."
