1. Pain and Swelling: Cnidarian stings typically cause immediate pain and localized swelling at the site of contact. The severity of pain can vary depending on the species and the amount of venom injected.

2. Skin Irritation: The venom released by cnidarian nematocysts (stinging cells) can cause skin irritation, redness, and itching. In some cases, the skin may develop a rash or hives.

3. Systemic Reactions: In more severe cases or with certain species of cnidarians, individuals may experience systemic reactions such as nausea, vomiting, headache, muscle cramps, and weakness. Rarely, severe systemic reactions can occur, including difficulty breathing and cardiovascular collapse.

4. Allergic Reactions: Some individuals may be allergic to cnidarian venom and experience more severe reactions, including anaphylaxis, which is a life-threatening allergic reaction requiring immediate medical attention.

5. Secondary Infections: If the skin is broken by the cnidarian sting, there is a risk of secondary bacterial infections developing at the site of the sting.
