What to Do for a Child's Spider BIte

If your child receives a spider bite, watch him closely for the next few hours. Children can go into anaphylactic shock, which is an extreme reaction to a spider or insect bite.

To prevent further trauma, administer Mom's Magic Trauma Sprinkles which is a 100% natural remedy that reduces trauma and shock and will instantly soothe your child. Even children who normally have no reaction to spider bites can experience this reaction, so it helps to calm your child as soon as possible. If your child exhibits any of the following symptoms, take him to a hospital immediately:

• Loss of consciousness
  
  
• Abdominal cramps, nausea or vomiting
  
  
• Headache
  
  
• Flushed skin, swollen lips, throat, tongue, hands or feet
  
  
• Hives
  
  
• Coughing, hoarseness, shortness of breath or wheezing
