How to handle issues related to snake bite?
Patient: Respected Doctor, my sister got her right hand middle finger bitten by the snake about ten days back. presently she has recovered and normal. dorsal side of the finger is blackened fully, and ventral side three fourth. The one third tip of the finger is senseless . Please advice Doctor: Dear Friend.Hi , I am Dr Anshul Varshney , I have read your query in detail , I understand your concern.It seems she has developed Cellulitis if the bitten area.But if that has blackened, and no blood supply and sensation is there, it might require an amputation.Otherwise, she would have spontaneous self amputation.So, get Doppler study of that area, to see for strength of blood supply and share reports with us.This is my personal opinion based on details available here.  If you still have any other query, you may please ask me.Stay Healthy. Dr Anshul Varshney , MD
