Todd's face began to swell. Paula rushed him to the animal hospital, where he received prompt medical attention, including antivenom treatment. After a day of rest and observation, Todd was able to return home.
Paula is grateful for Todd's bravery, as the incident could have turned out much worse. While rattlesnake bites are rarely fatal for humans, they can cause serious pain, vision problems, breathing difficulties, and numbness.
