What can a sting do to me?

There is a story of a 250 lbs man that was stung by a Scorpion was fully paralyzed on one half of his body for over a week.  If this man were a child that weighed 50 lbs he would have been killed very easily.

Does size affect sting?

Like most people say, the smaller ones have a worse sting.  That’s not true at all.  What it really is is that the smaller Scorpions will put more venom in their sting then they realize.  And for adult scorpions, they know how to control their venom dosage amounts.  So when people say that a smaller Scorpion sting is worse, it’s actually false.  The only reason it would be “worse” is because they can give more venom in a sting.
