Many years ago my daughter-in-law's father was stung on the penis when he got out of the shower and grabbed a towel that had a scorpion passenger on it. I was stung in the toe a few years ago---what an experience. In 45 minutes, I felt the venom move up my body to my head. Worst night of sleep ever and that toe was numb for over a week. I can't imagine what happens when one is stung in the gonads.

I'll have to remember that. I don't even take tylenol but the night I was stung was so awful (extreme discomfort, moving my legs, painful throbbing toe) that I woke up and searched the house for something. My husband had an oxycodone prescription from a surgery (which he barely used). The bottle said take 1 or 2--I took 2!
They certainly have venom but there’s nothing that can be done unless a person has a serious reaction like foaming at the mouth or a seizure—which I hear is rare. I’m no expert but that’s what I’ve learned word-of-mouth in this desert land. The weirdest thing was feeling the venom progress through my body.

Please do share where this most unfortunate incident occurred so i can add it to my ever growing list of places never to retire to.
Ha! In Phoenix.
Thanks Susan. ✔️AZ is off the list. 😂
Scorpion sting? Homeopathy to the rescue. "Androctonus: This is the first choice for scorpion bites otherwise, use Ledum." This less common remedy can be found at https://hahnemannlabs.com/cgi-bin/htmlos.cgi/00385.1.732410420716129859/hahnemannlabs

Aren't they poisonous? Dont you go to ER?🤔
Not near as poisonous as the latest booster, but they haven’t decided it’s best in the balls yet. That’s coming.

Omg, how frightening!
