Scorpion stings are a cutaneous condition caused by the stinging of scorpions, usually resulting in pain, paresthesia, and variable swelling. The anatomical part of the scorpion that delivers the sting is called a "telson". Most scorpion stings vary from small swelling to medically significant lesions in severity, with only a few able to cause severe allergic, neurotic or necrotic reactions. Only two species of scorpions can inflict stings which result in death of normal healthy humans: the Israeli deathstalker (''Leiurus quinquestriatus'') and the ''Brazilian yellow scorpion'' (Tityus serrulatus). Antivenom exists for both species' stings. == See also == * Scorpion venom * Arachnidism * Grain itch * Skin lesion * List of cutaneous conditions 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「scorpion sting」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
