Stung by a jellyfish?

I just get stung by a jellyfish. Can I use my own pee to pee on it?

Answers:

Vinegar (3 to 10% acetic acid within water) should be applied for box jellyfish stings. However, vinegar is not recommended for Portuguese Man o' War stings.In the crust of stings on or around the eyes, vinegar may be placed on a towel and dabbed around the eyes, but not contained by them. Salt water may also be used within case vinegar is not convenient.Fresh water should not be used if the sting occur in saline water, as a changeover in pH can effect the release of additional toxin. Rubbing the wound, or using alcohol, spirits, ammonia, or urine will encourage the release of toxin and should be avoided.If you pour vodka on the jellyfish sting it will reduce the throbbing, as proven on the television show, Mythbusters.

Once deactivated, the stinging cell must be removed. This can be accomplished by picking stale tentacles left on the body. First aid providers should watch out to use gloves or another readily available barrage device to prevent personal injury, and to follow standard universal precautions. After huge pieces of the jellyfish are removed, shaving cream may be applied to the area and a stick edge, safekeeping razor, or credit card may be used to bring away any remaining nematocysts.

Beyond initial first aid, antihistamines such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl) may be used to control skin irritation (pruritus).
