If you’re heading to the beach this summer, mind the wildlife. Jellyfish stings are awful. This handy graphic shows you how to treat the wound if you find yourself stung by one.
This graphic from the Art of Manliness walks you through the basic steps of treating a jellyfish sting. The basics, like rinsing with saltwater and scraping the stingers out with a credit card, are things you can do right on the beach. However, unless you bring calamine lotion or ice packs to the beach, you may need to head home for the rest.
