Narcissus is a very common household flower, with a cultivation history of over a thousand years in our country, and is also one of the top ten famous flowers of our country.

So what symptoms appear after narcissus poisoning? What should be done after narcissus poisoning? Below, Qinnong Web will introduce this to everyone.

I. Symptoms After Narcissus Poisoning

II. What to Do After Narcissus Poisoning

If only a very small amount was accidentally ingested and the poisoning symptoms are relatively mild, then there is no need to worry too much, and it will improve after resting for a period of time. However, if the symptoms are relatively severe, or the amount consumed is relatively large, then it is best to induce vomiting first, and then go to the hospital for medical treatment in time. Only in this way can you ensure that nothing goes wrong.

III. Can Narcissus Be Kept at Home

Since narcissus is poisonous, why do so many people still keep it at home? Is this not very dangerous?

Actually, everyone need not worry too much. Although narcissus is poisonous, this toxicity is relatively mild. As long as you do not accidentally ingest it or touch its sap, narcissus will not release its toxins externally. When narcissus blooms, it has a certain fragrance. This smell will not have much effect on most people, but if there is someone in the home who is allergic to pollen, then it is still better not to keep it at home, or place it a little farther away from yourself.

IV. Precautions During Care

Qinnong Web has already mentioned above that the toxins of narcissus are mainly in its sap. Therefore, simple contact with narcissus leaves is also safe, but we should still be careful during the care process. If narcissus produces mucus, try to avoid direct contact with the skin, and it must not be eaten, so as to avoid symptoms of allergy or poisoning. In addition, do not get the sap into the eyes. The sap of narcissus is especially harmful to the eyes.
