It can hurt, and allergic reaction to the saliva is not unknown. Barring allergic reactions, express (or press) some blood from the wound. Then treat with an antiseptic like hydrogen peroxide 3%, bandage and wound check it either daily or if complications arise. Shortness of breath, the appearance of hives, welts or weals in large numbers, extreme itchiness all mean you're allergic. If you ever have a breathing problem, it's off to hospital for you. Likewise with huge, fast-appearing rashes. Minor rashes may be treated at home with antihistimies -- I still like diphenhydramine.

Most grasshoppers lead relatively blameless lives, causing little harm to crops or gardens.

However, some species of grasshoppers lead a "Jekyll and Hyde" existence, and can change into a very damaging form indeed, in which they congregate in huge swarms that can do severe damage to crops. These swarming grasshoppers are called locusts. There are more than 20,000 species of grasshoppers known to science, but only about a dozen of these form damaging swarms.

Locusts have two "phases" of existence. When food is plentiful, they exist in the solitary form. In this form they act just like other grasshoppers - they have no tendancy to form swarms, and they do little damage. They can exist in the solitary form for many generations. However, if food becomes scarce, they switch to the gregarious form. This form actually looks different to the solitary form, to the point that one would think it was a completely different species. However, it is not the appearance change which is the problem, it is the change in behavior. Locusts in the gregarious phase really like each others company, they join together in huge enormous (we're talking billions of locusts, covering hundreds of square miles in the worst cases) and eat just about every green thing they encounter.

One swarm in 1988 covered an area of 75 x 15 miles, contained (about) 150 billion locusts and was estimated to be eating 300,000 tons fresh green food per day.

No.

Grasshoppers that have eaten toxic plants may be "poisonous" in the sense that if you eat them, the toxin could be passed on to you. But they're not naturally poisonous in themselves.

Oh, what a fascinating question! Grasshoppers with spike tails are actually not poisonous to humans.
