Localised pain, aching in the hand when put in a down position. Pronounced swelling area. Might get mild head ache. Drink lots of fluids and keep elevated. will take a few days to come down. The bite may remain slightly infected for some time and could become inflamed again at a later date.
Seek medical advice if child, elderly or have other health conditions.
Cant help someone who wont help themselves ,
dpeica is right though .... if he isn't having any trouble breathing or swelling isn't getting any worse then there is probably a slim chance or a major reaction seeing as the bite took place over an hour ago , but without an ID it is probably still wise to call an ambo regardless
But I will repeat cant help someone who wont help themselves
what!
keep elevated.
Its been over an hour since the original post. And unless his dad is some kind of freak I doubt he was cleaning up dead trees in the dark, so its most likely been several hours.Dpeica has taken a punt he will be OK it can take over an hour for symptoms to develop from some of our deadliest snakes
Call an ambulence. They'll come no matter what.
Whips arent the easiest things to get bitten by.

No matter how stupid a person is, if they're on their way out they'll generally seek medical assistance if they need to. If a relative has time to post on the internet and ask for advice from a bunch of strangers its a safe bet they'll be fine.
Anaphylaxis can be ruled out.
Steve, shut up.
agree with D on that one ....oh and snakeluvver dont get this misunderstanding that if its a small elapid it isnt as dangerous ...BIG MISTAKE!!!I forgot to add, I doubt it was a whip snake. Probably some ****ty spider or something. Whips arent the easiest things to get bitten by.
