Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: From Wikipedia: The 'fur' of the larva contains venomous spines that cause extremely painful reactions in human skin upon contact. The reactions are sometimes localized to the affected area but are often very severe, radiating up a limb and causing burning, swelling, nausea, headache, abdominal distress, rashes, blisters, and sometimes chest pain, numbness, or difficulty breathing (Eagleman 2008). Additionally, it is not unusual to find sweating from the welts or hives at the site of the sting.
Español: Desde Wikipedia: La 'piel' de la larva contiene espinas venenosas que causan reacciones extremadamente dolorosas en la piel humana o al contacto. Las reacciones son a veces localizados a la zona afectada, pero a menudo son muy graves, irradiando una extremidad y causar quemaduras, hinchazón, náuseas, dolor de cabeza, dolor abdominal, erupciones, ampollas, y a veces dolor en el pecho, entumecimiento, dificultad para respirar. Además, no es raro encontrar sudor en las ronchas o en el sitio de la picadura.
Français : Selon Wikipédia (vérifier éventuelle mise à jour), la «pseudo-fourrure» de la larve de Megalopyge est constituée de poils faisant fonction d'épines venimeuses. Elles causent des réactions extrêmement douloureuses dans la peau humaine. Les réactions sont parfois localisées à la zone touchée, mais sont souvent très graves, rayonnant d'un membre et causant brûlure, enflure, nausées, maux de tête, douleurs abdominales, éruptions cutanées, cloques, et parfois des engourdissements ou des difficultés respiratoire (Eagleman 2008). En outre, il n'est pas rare de trouver une transpiration anormale ou une urticaire à l'endroit de la piqûre. |
