"And the most common symptom of this disease is severe headache, which is mostly persistent dull pain in the temporal and posterior occipital regions, sometimes explosive and pulsating, showing a tearing general headache, accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and neck stiffness. It usually lasts for 5 Up to 10 days, it can co-exist with coma, and when conscious, it can last for about a week."

"Moreover, if the disease is severe, it can also cause muscle paralysis, but most patients will gradually recover after 2 to 3 weeks, and a few have sequelae and muscle atrophy."

"Damn, this disease sounds too scary, doesn't it?"

"This forest encephalitis is so terrifying?"

"How come I've never heard of this disease?"

"Generally, people who live in the mountains know about forest encephalitis."

"Well, I've heard of it too, but we have fewer ticks here."

"Then what if you are really bitten by a tick?"

"Damn, so that said, there was only a thin line between Hu Kai and the god of death just now?!"

Li Yuan smiled and said: "It's not that exaggerated. After all, not all ticks will carry the forest encephalitis virus, and not all ticks will get sick after being bitten. It's just that the disease after being bitten by a tick The odds are high, especially if it's not handled well."

"If the tick wound is treated well, there will be no major problems."

"If the friends in the live broadcast room find that they are bitten by ticks and drilled into the skin, they can apply alcohol on the ticks to anesthetize or kill the ticks' heads, and then use pointed tweezers to take out the ticks. Remember not to pull hard , which is likely to cause the tick to separate its body and mouthparts due to excessive tension."

"Once the two are separated, the mouthparts buried under the skin are prone to infection."

"And if it is not discovered in time, the bacteria in the mouthparts will cause many complications, and it will be more dangerous than unseparated ticks!"

"And after the ticks are taken out, they need to be treated with iodine or alcohol for local disinfection. After taking them out, you must observe your physical condition at any time. Once you have symptoms such as fever, inflammation and ulceration at the bite site, and erythema, you should seek medical attention in time. , otherwise it is very likely to delay the disease.”

"If you don't have these tools at hand, and you can't or are inconvenient to deal with ticks, you should also go to the hospital to clean them up in time."

Studio.

"Anchor, since ticks are so dangerous, is there any way to avoid them?"

"I heard what the anchor said, why do you feel that this thing is more terrifying than a poisonous snake?"

"Actually, there is nothing wrong with this statement. At least for mountain walkers, snakes are indeed more pleasing than ticks."

"Why do you say that?"

"I know this, because at least snakes are easy to find in the mountains and forests, and they won't attack as long as they don't make the other party feel dangerous, but ticks are too small to be guarded against!"

Li Yuan nodded.

"Indeed, the reason why mountain walkers hate ticks so much is that this thing is too small, and there are so many ticks in the forest that it is difficult to avoid them."

"Ticks are divided into hard ticks and soft ticks. The ticks we just saw that live in forests, bushes, open pastures, grasslands, and mountain soil are called hard ticks."

"Soft ticks generally inhabit livestock enclosures, wild animal caves, bird nests and crevices in human houses."

"This kind of tick has a high reproductive capacity. The female tick lays eggs after being fertilized and sucked blood. The hard tick lays eggs once, and can produce almost all of them within 4 to 40 days after being full of blood, and the number of eggs it lays will reach hundreds. There may even be thousands of them, depending on the species.”

"However, if it is a soft tick, the number of eggs laid will increase, with 50 to 200 eggs laid at a time, and the total number can even reach thousands."

"And what's even more frightening is that this kind of tick, whether it is a larva, a nymph, or a male and female adult, has the ability to suck blood, and the amount of blood sucked is also huge. After the development period is full of blood, the tick can even swell several times to dozens of times. times, female Ixodes can even reach more than 100 times!"

"The most sensitive part of these ticks is the sense of smell, especially the sweat odor and carbon dioxide of animals. They can sense it when the host and the tick are at a distance of 15 meters."

"So these ticks generally wait passively. Once they smell the host's approach, they will take the initiative to attack."

"However, the range of activity of ticks is not large, generally about tens of meters. The activities of hosts, especially the seasonal migration of migratory birds, play an important role in the dispersal of ticks."

"So also because of the tick's keen sense of smell, the parts they like to parasitize most are some parts with thinner skin that are not easily scratched."

"So in spring, when you pass through the grass, or take your pets for a walk in the grass, don't forget to check your pets and yourself when you go home, otherwise it is easy to carry ticks."

Studio.

"No, we also have ticks in the grass here."

"The anchor is right. My little yellow was bitten yesterday. I went to the pet hospital to get it off. It was very troublesome."

"It's better to be careful."

"And the places where the ticks bite are very ancient, just some corners."

Li Yuan: "Well, like Ixodes pandox, it likes to parasitize on the neck, behind the ears, armpits, inner thighs, genitals, and groin of animals or people. And those tiny bovine ticks mostly parasitize on the necks of cows. The wattle and chest, followed by the scapula. Persian sharp edge ticks generally live under the wings and leg axils of poultry."

"So although it is difficult for us to find the traces of ticks in advance, according to the characteristics of ticks, we can spray some toilet water on the body in advance before going up the mountain, or carry insect repellent spray with us for prevention."

"Although this method cannot completely isolate the danger, it can still play a certain role in avoiding tick bites to a certain extent."

"In fact, it's pretty good in the Northeast. After all, ticks have a certain impact on factors such as temperature, humidity, soil, photoperiod, vegetation, and hosts."

"For example, in some warm regions, ticks are always active in spring, summer and autumn, and the activity period of some tick adults is as long as four or five months."

"Although there are ticks now, this is only the season when the ticks are just waking up, and the number is still relatively small."

Studio.

"Can this thing live for such a long time?"

"Ticks are so annoying... can't they freeze to death in winter?"

"That's right, isn't this thing afraid of the cold? Come out so early for activities."

"Ticks are really not afraid of the cold, and many ticks can survive the winter."

"Damn! It's too perverted."

"tenacious!"
