Lizard Bite:Only two kinds of lizards are venomous: the Gila monster found in Arizona and Mexico, and the beaded lizard native to Mexico. When bitten by these lizards, symptoms can include pain, swelling, and discoloration near the bite area, as well as swollen lymph nodes. Additional symptoms may involve weakness, sweating, thirst, headache, and in severe instances, a drop in blood pressure. It is crucial to keep the victim calm, still, and warm while transporting them to the nearest hospital promptly. The affected limb should be gently immobilized and kept lower than heart level. Remove any rings, watches, or tight clothing, and avoid giving stimulants. Use a Sawyer's extractor, a first-aid device for suctioning venom from the bite area, within the first five minutes and leave it on for 30 to 40 minutes while en route to the hospital. There is no specific antivenom available.
