Walking on a beach or swimming in the
ocean can be fun and relaxing, but just
like any other activities, accidents can
happen.
Jellyfish
 Jellyfish
are often present in coastal waters, having
been brought ashore by winds or ocean currents.
They are most common in warm ocean waters,
especially along the Atlantic coast of the
United States. Stings result from contact
with the tentacles, which trail from the
jellyfish's see-through body. Jellyfish
swimming in the water are often hard to
see. Beached jellyfish (right), can sting
if touched.
Fortunately, most jellyfish
stings are not severe. Jellyfish stings
cause immediate, intense pain and burning
that can last for several hours. Raised,
red welts develop along the site of the
sting, often in a whiplike fashion, and
may last for 1 to 2 weeks. Itchy skin rashes
may appear 1 to 4 weeks after the sting.
Extensive stings, allergic reactions, or
severe toxic reactions are not common but
do occur.
