Based on 1 discussion with 3 participants · Last activity: 18 days ago

TL;DR

Do not rinse with fresh water — use seawater only. Apply lime juice or vinegar generously, take an antihistamine. Aloe vera and python fat also help reduce inflammation.

What the community said

Aloe vera is available at almost every street fruit vendor. Python fat is another effective local remedy — alternating between the two can significantly reduce swelling and pain within hours, even for children.

If stung by jellyfish tentacles, never rinse with fresh water — use seawater only. Then pour lime juice or vinegar generously over the affected area and take an antihistamine tablet.

To relieve jellyfish sting itching, apply acidic liquids such as lemon juice, tomato juice, lime juice, or regular vinegar. These are often available at a nearby restaurant if you don't have them on hand.
