Abstract :
Snakebites are uncommon but potentially life-threatening events that can result in a range of clinical manifestations, often dependent on factors such as the snake species, venom potency, and bite location. While snakebites affecting limbs and exposed body parts are more frequently encountered, snakebites directly to the tongue represent a rare and intriguing clinical scenario. This case report presents a unique case of snakebite to the tongue, emphasizing the significance of early recognition, appropriate medical intervention, and the need for comprehensive snakebite education, even in regions with low snakebite incidence.
