      First aid for snake bites:

      1. Stay Calm: Keep the victim calm and reassure them. Encourage them to remain still to slow the spread of venom.
      2. Keep the Bite Area Immobilized: Limit movement of the affected limb or body part to prevent venom from spreading.
      3. Remove Jewelry and Tight Clothing: Remove any jewelry or tight clothing near the bite site to prevent constriction if swelling occurs.
      4. Positioning: Position the bite below the level of the heart, if possible, to slow venom circulation.
      5. Clean the Bite Area: Clean the bite wound with soap and water, but do not flush with water, as it can spread venom.
      6. Apply a Bandage: Apply a loose bandage over the bite site, leaving the area of the bite uncovered. The bandage should be snug but not tight.
      7. Seek Medical Help: Transport the victim to the nearest medical facility as soon as possible for evaluation and treatment. Do not attempt to capture or kill the snake, but try to remember its appearance for identification.

      First aid for nosebleeds:

      1. Sit Up and Lean Forward: Have the person sit up straight and lean slightly forward to prevent blood from flowing down the throat.
      2. Pinch the Nose: Using the thumb and forefinger, pinch the soft part of the nose just below the bridge. Maintain pressure for 5-10 minutes.
      3. Apply Cold Compress: Apply a cold compress or ice pack to the bridge of the nose to constrict blood vessels and reduce bleeding.
      4. Avoid Tilting Backwards: Do not tilt the head backward, as this can cause blood to flow down the throat and may lead to choking or swallowing blood.
      5. Avoid Blowing Nose: Advise the person to avoid blowing their nose or picking at crusts, as this can disrupt clot formation and prolong bleeding.
      6. Seek Medical Attention: If bleeding persists for more than 20 minutes despite applying pressure, or if the nosebleed is accompanied by other symptoms such as dizziness, fainting, or difficulty breathing, seek medical attention promptly.

      These first aid measures can help manage snake bites and nosebleeds effectively until further medical assistance is available.
