This should be done by cleaning it with warm, fresh water and soap and/or antiseptic wash. Cold water can be used if no warm water is available, but this will be more painful for the victim. If the victim is in extreme pain, it may not be possible to perform this step. If no clean water or antiseptic wash is available, it is best to leave the wound alone until it can be washed. Using dirty water could do more harm than good by increasing the victim's risk of infection. This could be especially dangerous if the wound is deep. This should be done once the victim is at home or at a medical facility. Use very warm or hot water and allow the body part to soak for 30 to 90 minutes.   Be sure to use a clean vessel and clean, fresh water for soaking the injured body part. This will help prevent further risk of infection. Warm water can denature the proteins in the venom. Try to use water as hot as 113°F (45°C). This will promote healing and prevent infection. Unless otherwise instructed by a medical professional, wash the injured area at least once a day and apply an over-the-counter antibiotic ointment to the wound. A commonly used antibiotic ointment readily available in the U.S. is Neosporin triple-antibiotic. Numerous generic versions of this also exist in pharmacies and convenience stores. These ointments are for topical use only. These over-the-counter drugs (those available without a doctor's prescription) serve to reduce swelling and pain. Skip this step if the victim is vomiting or allergic to such medication.  Over-the-counter anti-inflammatory medications are those that contain ibuprofen, aspirin, or naproxen; they are available in a variety of brand options (such as Advil, Motrin, and Aleve) and can be found at any pharmacy in the U.S. and most other countries. Note that anti-inflammatory medications will not speed the healing process; they simply provide relief from pain and discomfort. Remember that stingray venom in particular is thought to have anti-coagulation effects, especially in large doses. If the wound site is bleeding and will not seem to slow, or if the sting was particularly severe, refrain from giving these drugs as they can further decrease clotting. Instead, go to a hospital for treatment right away, where they can administer local painkiller injections and topical anesthetics. Even if the wound is not severe and pain subsides quickly, the victim should obtain medical treatment. It is always easiest to treat wounds such as these early to prevent complications down the road and to eliminate certain risks.  A doctor may order medical imaging tests to ensure that no barb fragments remain in the wound. This is the only way to ensure that no harmful objects remain in the victim's body. Even a small barb fragment can cause an infection. In order to prevent infection (especially from wounds occurring in salt water bodies), antibiotics may be prescribed. Always follow a prescribed course of antibiotics to completion, even if you believe the wound has healed. Failure to do so could invite infection or make one worse. Pain medication may be prescribed if over-the-counter medication is inadequate. Never take more than the recommended dose of a prescribed pain medication. For your safety, strictly adhere to any accompanying instructions (such as things not to eat or drink while taking the medication).
