However, when she boarded the plane, she found that her seat was not properly secured.

She asked the crew to resolve the issue, but they took no action, resulting in her sustaining injuries.

Upon arrival at her destination, she was taken to a clinic for treatment and given an antivenom vaccine.

After completing the treatment, she continued her journey, and a specialist doctor examined her upon her arrival at her final destination.
