A SWIMMER is seeking help for his paralyzed hand caused by bites by an unidentified marine creature a week ago.Doctors have been unable to treat the man’s wounds effectively.The man, identified only as a Mr. Luo from Qilun Home Decoration Co., said his right hand became numb when the hand appeared to have struck something while he was swimming at Dameisha Beach at around 11 p.m. last Tuesday.He tried to grab the creature which he described as “soft and slippery,” and it bit him again on the right wrist, and the whole right hand became numb.His colleagues escorted him to the beach where a lifesaver told them it was “normal” to be bitten by small sea creatures.At the beach, Luo saw two small punctures on his hand and wrist, each surrounded by a rash the size of a coin.He was taken to hospital at 3 a.m. last Wednesday when his wounds worsened, with his right hand shaking.A doctor at Meisha Hospital prescribed some antibiotics for him, saying he might have been attacked by a jellyfish. His hand was quite swollen and necrosis had affected the tissue around the wounds.Doctors were unable to prevent the wounds from deteriorating.Luo finally went to the Shenzhen office of Southern Metropolitan News Monday, hoping his story might be read by medical experts who then might be able to offer effective treatment and identify the mysterious attacker.Reporters of the News Monday saw a discharge from the wounds, which looked like burns on the swollen hand
