It will get red,swollen %26amp; itchy. You can buy over the counter sting relief produts at any drug store.Also maybe take a benadryl. If it contiues to swell or swells past a joint see a doctor. If you are having a hard time breathing call 911.Other Answers (5)

If you have TOBACCO (any kind, meaning bum a cig off someone. or some %26quot;chew%26quot;), get the end of a cigarette (or whatever tobacco you use) wet with your saliva (not lit of course). If you don%26#039;t have tobacco available, try toothpaste!!! You want to make a paste out of whatever you use, and put it over the sting site. I know this sounds crazy, but my daughter is VERY allergic to honey bees, and a %26quot;good ole boy%26quot; that lived next door, grabbed a cig from me, and licked the end and got it wet and held it on the sting mark for 5 to 10 minutes, and it literally works as an astringent and pulls the poisons out. She didn%26#039;t even swell, and the pain went away very fast!!! This is NOT a wive%26#039;s tale. Works for spider bites, bee stings and anything else that you need astrigent for!!! Do NOT leave on for more than 20 minutes though. very dangerous to make a paste and leave it on overnight. Will eat away the skin if you leave it on TOO long (not sure about the toothpaste on that one).
take care, and seriously, use tobacco or toothpaste!! -
I know this sounds stupid, but it works. My mother would use tobacco from her cigarette and wet it, then apply it to the sting site. Make sure the stinger is not still lodged in the sting area. Hope this helps.
