Woman screams in pain after getting pinched by crab she was about to cook

A woman from Buenavista, Marinduque, just experienced how painful it was to be pinched by a crab.

As reported on #KuyaKimAnoNa on “24 Oras” Tuesday, Joy dela Cruz sold cooked meals and was filming herself preparing seafood for an upcoming outing.

However, while she was washing a large crab, it suddenly pinched her ring finger on her right hand.

“Iyon palang na-cut ko eh iyong connecting doon sa sipit niya,” said Joy.

In the video, she could be heard screaming in pain while people rushed to help her.

Joy said the crab’s grip was so strong that flesh came out of the wound.

Fortunately, one of her friends was a nurse, who immediately applied first aid on her hand before they went to a hospital.
