pica pica is something similar to the jellyfish but it's different. i don't know what the real name for it is but it doesn't have any tentacles. it usually comes around during the easter.what u can do is just rub alcohol on it or some pple put the vicks vapor rub on it and it helps.just avoid scratching it for it may tend to get worse

Pica pica, usually always sting the skin under your suit when they get trapped. I have been stung very badly several times, seems to get worse for a few days, DO NOT SCRATCH...seems to spread if you do. My miracle preventive solution is oil, baby, suntan, cooking. under your suit prior to going in the water,they cant sting. they are seasonal and are only around for a few months....

Long Hot showers help a lot
It seems to stop the itching for quite a while and it heals faster.
Cooper vaseline seems to work even better.

If you get stung by a jelly fish or man a war, immediately wash the area with meat tenderizer or ammonia and it helps A LOT
