smooth anthony. lol.
fyi, there has never been any fatalities directly related to lionfish (stonefish are a different story). dunno if allergies count but that would ceertainly complicate the situation. as mentioned just pour hot water over the stung area asap, but please not boiling.

just as hot as you can stand without scalding yourself. calling a doc just to let him know what happened wouldnt be a bad idea. driving yourself anywhere would be a very bad idea.
