Bonus tip

Itching from jellyfish stings can last for several days or even weeks.

To relieve them, and if you have a bathtub, prepare a calming bath.

Run a lukewarm bath and add 1 cup of baking soda.

Once the bicarbonate is diluted, immerse yourself in this bath for at least 30 min.

Why does it work?

Bicarbonate naturally disinfects the affected area.

It neutralizes the itching and burning sensation immediately

Jellyfish arrive on our metropolitan coasts in the summer, as soon as the water becomes warm.

Whether in the Mediterranean or in the Atlantic, filament jellyfish can be numerous.

To avoid bad encounters, trust the information from supervised beaches:the lifeguards always indicate the days at risk.

Also look at the surface of the water:they swim in groups, you will easily spot them.

What exactly is a jellyfish "sting"?

Jellyfish don't actually sting, they inflame the swimmer's skin causing red patches and a kind of itchy hives.

What are the symptoms?

We feel a kind of small electrocution or electric shock.

This discharge can simply "sting" or worse "paralysis" of the affected arm or leg.

The area is red with scratchy pimples, leaving itchy even after a week.
