What symptoms appear after narcissus poisoning?

Narcissus is a very common household flower, with a cultivation history of over a thousand years in China, and it is also one of China's top ten famous flowers. Narcissus looks serene and fresh, and its fragrance is pleasant when it blooms, but do not be fooled by its seemingly harmless appearance, as narcissus is a poisonous flower. 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

The toxin of narcissus is mainly concentrated in its sap. If you touch the sap of narcissus, an allergic reaction may occur. Once the sap of narcissus is mistakenly eaten, whether by pets or people, symptoms such as vomiting, abdominal pain, dizziness and nausea will appear after ingestion.

II. What to do about narcissus poisoning

If only a very small amount was mistakenly eaten 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 eaten is relatively large, then it is best to induce vomiting first, and then go to the hospital for medical treatment in time, so as to ensure there is no mishap.

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 mistakenly eat it or touch the sap of narcissus, narcissus will not release its toxin into the outside environment. When narcissus blooms, it has a certain fragrance, and 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 better not to keep it at home, or place it somewhere a little farther away from yourself.

IV. Precautions during care

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

The above is the introduction brought to you by Qinnong Web about the symptoms of narcissus poisoning and treatment methods. We hope it is helpful to everyone. The main flowering period of narcissus is in spring, but if the temperature is suitable, then in the twelfth lunar month you can already see narcissus showing its green leaves and releasing its fragrance, adding some peaceful and warm atmosphere to the New Year.
