What Should Be Done After A Black Racer Snake Bite?
Hi, earlier today my husband was repeatedly bitten by a black racer snake. The wounds bled slightly. No swelling or redness. He has had a tetanus shot about 18 months ago. We washed the bites with hydrogen peroxide. Anything else we should watch for or do? Thank you

Hi,
Keep watching for local skin changes. Should go to ER. Get examined and get anti snake venue as per doctor's advise after examining you.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
