These jellyfish are comon throughout the tropical and temperate waters of Australia. The majority of stings by these jellyfish result only in local pain and skin welts and erythema. Nausea, vomiting and headaches may sometimes occur. First aid consists of local application of ice packs or iced water, and supportive care such as analgesia as required. |
