Treat with vinegar or Lime juice (there are plenty of them in the restaurant).

Hedgehogs themselves are not poisonous, but their spines break off very easily and remain in the body. The consequences are not very pleasant.
So, if you are "lucky" to get to know a hedgehog closely, it is better to consult a doctor, since this case should be covered by insurance. Well, or at least ask someone who knows to see if there are any pieces of the needle left in the wound.
I was "lucky" for such meetings only in the Adriatic, where the hedgehogs' needles are several times shorter. Fragments of needles were removed from the leg for another week. :)

There are a lot of biting and prickly ones in the sea. The main rule is NEVER and under no circumstances take anything with your hands, especially corals.
A very dangerous stone-fish.
As for hedgehogs, I can offer several options - alum is sold in the markets - they are very good in such cases, and the very first thing is urine.

Hedgehog http://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/4600/kurganoff1.0/0_38636_24e8806f_L.jpg (Regular, diadem)
- get out of the water, dry the damaged area,
try to remove the spines with tweezers. To soften the skin on the heel, hot vegetable oil compresses help. (Local dive guides fry the heel with a lighter. Radical, but ...))) If a piece of thorn is left inside, try to break it into small pieces. In principle, the spines resolve themselves over time. The wound MUST be disinfected.
If someone is unlucky, he pricked Tripneustes http://www.diverosa.com/Egypte%20DS/EDS-25%20Collector%20or%20Sector%20sea%20urchin,%20Tripneus tes%20gratilla.jpg, then here
already need to quickly look for a doctor, since the poison of this hedgehog has a nerve-paralytic effect.
And simply pulling out the thorns will not get off!
therefore - slippers, slippers or flippers.
On the beach, I advise everyone to have a bottle of vinegar - rinse burns from corals and jellyfish repeatedly with vinegar. Helps!

as correctly advised above - NO SELF-TREATMENT!
upon receipt of any wound - immediately to the insurance!
let the experts figure out what to do and how to do it

Remove the thorns, small with adhesive plaster, the limb in hot water as far as tolerable, the needles will dissolve in the body faster. If severe allergies, see a doctor. She was looking for information before going to Egypt.

precautions: be sure to buy "coral slippers"
and do not touch anything with your hands, no matter what the temptations are
