A pressure bandage to restrict lymphatic flow
is also going to restrict blood flow but not

Some advise not applying such for the risk of
getting it wrong and doing more harm than good.
There are other deciding factors such as what type
of toxin..eg: neurotoxin(elapids) Vs haemotoxin(vipers).
but it's not always that simplistic, for some vipers
can deliver nuerotoxin and some elapids haemotoxin.
