Suck the poison out to cure a scorpion sting on the Oregon Trail.

Explanation:

The Oregon trail throughout the 1800s can be a really dangerous place. Scorpion stings were common and were treated in a very few other ways. Most often, associate degree incision was created at the sting site and therefore the poison was allowed to empty from the wound or sucked out, looking at the severity of the sting.

It would most likely be treated with incision and emptying to get rid of the venom; elevation, symptomatic management, rest, trauma besides application of a herbal poultice.
