I found this one scorpion fish when i dived at boracay last month. Theoretically, scorpion fish are members of the family scorpaenidae. The fins of these prickly fish carry poisonous venom. Most swimmers injured are caused when they step into one of scorpion fish spines while swimming. Scorpion fish sting cause intense pain and swelling at the site of the sting.

Swelling can spread to affect an entire arm or leg within minutes. This is the same thing in side effects of diet pill , or so i heard. You have to seek medical attention when it attack you. It is important to wash the area with warm water if possible. Soak the wound in the hottest water the person can tolerate for 30 to 90 minutes.
