Practice Reading: Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) ID: #34905 Snakes’ Bite
Instructions
Some  people  who  are  bitten  by  snakes  (or  suspect  or  imagine  that  they  have  been  bitten)  may  develop  quite  striking  symptoms  and  signs,  even  when  no  venom  has  been  .  This  results  from  an  understandable  fear  of  the  consequences  of  a  real  venomous  bite.  Anxious  people  may  hyperventilate  so  that  they  develop  pins-and-needles    in  the  extremities,  spasm  of  their  hands  and  feet,  and  dizziness.  Some  may  develop  vasovagal  shock  after  the  bite  or  suspected  bite,  with  faintness  and  collapse  with  profound  slowing  of  the  heart.  Others  may  become  highly  agitated  and    and  may  manifest  a  wide  range  of  misleading  symptoms.  The  clinical    of  a  snakebite  victim  varies  with  the  age  and  size  of  the  patient,  the  species  of  snake,  the  number  and  location  of  the  bites,  and  the  quantity  and  toxicity  of  the  venom.
