How do you treat shock in need any doctors or civilization around you?
Like the last quiz I made today, about treating serious wounds, I am doing a research roughly surviving in the Everglades minus any civilization around you. I am looking for answers that goes according to my status- I own a limited amount of things except for the clothes I own on and a hatchet. (o_0)
Answers are appreciated.

Answer:
that depends on what mode of shock it is.
if its an anaphalactic shock (allergic reaction) theres nothing much you can do. the body itself will try row it, but it might fail.
Have the being lie flat, to comfort the flow of blood to the heart and brain. Also elevate the legs to the height of 12 to 18 inches. Cover the lenient and protect him from losing any body heat. Handle him really gently as niggle increases shock.
So how do you have internet if you lone have your clothes and a chopper with you? Elevate the foot and keep the creature as warm and comfortable as possible. Water help too.
It all depends on the type of shock you are dealing next to, or what is causing the shock.
If it is a mental shock you dont hold to do much just hold the person melt and quiet. Legs up body down and they will soon be fit as a be restless.
Anaphilactic shock (Allergic shock) you have a material problem cos you cant do much. Try to reduce or do away with the agent (mostly plant /animal poisons) as much as possible or to lokalise its action for example within the case of bite by tying rotten the affected nouns (mostly limb) so that the allergen can get single slowwly into the systemic circulation. Mentain an open nouns passage means of access for breathing if possible by intubation, if obligation be by punctuing the windpipe above the adams apple, but this is a very unsafe manouver and only a finishing resort in armour of iminent suffocation. Legs up body down.
In Haemorraghic shock you must stop the source of bleeding first, ensure enough fluid intake, hold warm and put on a pedestal the legs with lowered body to centralise the remaining blood.
In cardiogenic shock, you MUST NOT bring to the fore the legs and lower the body. this is the worst thing you can do cos the problem here is not shortage of blood volume but the fact that the heart is no longer competent to meet up beside pumping the blood that is near, so raising up the legs to force more blood into the already overstressed heart is not going to serve the matter at adjectives. Here there is not much you can do but hold quit and warm and seize to a hospital ASAP

if you plan to be away from civilization, carry emergency drugs close to adrenaline, cortisone antibiotics, bandages etc.if within are snakes in the nouns, anti venom will be a apposite idea. you will have need of syringes and distilled water too. avoid traveling alone and take a two way radio or satellite phone if you can
