Hey guys i just got stung by a scorpion in the finger. I just came back from Costa Rica and it happened when I cleaned my shoe. After the sting I saw the little shit sitting inside the shoe. Now it hurts like fuck and I don't know what to do. Hospital or no?

Take it to the vet.

Go to the hospital, now! That's a linguini scorpion, you might've been poisoned.

If you do not know what it is, go to the hospital. If you can, bring the scorp with you so they can id it
Yeah nigga

most likely that it will be just alot of pain and not more because the bigger the scorpion the less dangerous the poison

thats not true really.
That said you'll LIKELY be fine since there aren't any completely deadly scorpions unless you're allergic or unlucky or some shit, but i'd recommend a hospital if it hurts THAT badly and you're worried about it because I don't know if any of the worse species are in costa rica or if you could be having a reaction/etc

That could be a linguini scorpion, not sure. I would go to the hospital, just to make sure you're okay.
Costarican here. My dad got stung by one of those couple weeks ago and he's fine, didnt even went to the hospital. You should be ok, scorpions here arent deadly unless you're allergic. By the time you read this the pain must be already gone. Hope you spred some insecticide on that motherfucker

This irritates me more than herpes ever could.

>so they can id it
nobody at a hospital is going to be able to ID a scorpion from another country.
