Help, whats the best way to treat a wasp or bee sting?????
Answers: toothpaste
bread soaked in milk is suppose to help
put toothpaste on it,and some ice for the swelling.
Put some kind of cream on it.
Touch the spot with amonia
Benadryl and ice. Use tweezers if the stinger is still there.
a ice cube to start with then rub some lemon on it
make a paste with vinigar and baking soda and put on it
I've heard putting vanilla ice cream on it and letting it sit will actually bring the stinger if it's in the bump out and reduce swelling, no joke.
Baking soda mixed with a small amount of water takes the poison out and lessons the swelling!
To squeeze some liquid from an aloe Vera plant and rub it gently on the sting, or to rub a aloe Vera lip balm stick onto the sting, it has always worked for my family. It is a natural cure too which is better as there are not any chemicals in the plants either.
SCRAPE OUT THE STINGER WITH A CREDIT CARD OR SOMETHING SIMILAR, MEAT TENDERIZER MIXED WITH A LITTLE WATER WORKS
baking soda mixed with a little water to make a paste
try to pack it with mud, and let it dry and tehn peel off, it will take out the stinger, and calm the pain, and burnning......
uhhh... TIME, just wait it out
buy it a box of chocolates.
put toothpaste on it,and some ice for the swelling
Honey. It has powerful drawing qualities and is also a natural antiseptic. They drawing qualities will suck out any toxins and the antiseptic will take care of the germs.
If the person is allergic, get them to hospital ASAP.
Two different ways, since one is alkali and the other is acid, but the instructions below should work. My mother used washing soda for a bee sting and vinegar for a wasp sting, I believe.
With a bee sting, make sure that the sting is removed very carefully without squeezing the poison sac which is usually attached to it. Do this by scraping firmly from the sting towards the sac with a hard object such as a stick, tweezers or your fingernail. Then make sure that the rest of the sting is out of the skin.
Most people have localized reactions to insect stings – that is, the physical reactions (pain, swelling and redness) only occur on the skin at the site of the bite. To relieve these, first put ice on the area to limit the spread of the venom. Then apply a paste of one teaspoon of meat tenderizer mixed with one teaspoon of water. Follow this with cool, moist compresses and over-the-counter antihistamines such as Benadryl. Acetaminophen or ibuprofen can be used for pain. Most symptoms should resolve within 24 hours.
Generalized reactions to stings occur in about 4 of every 1,000 stings. They begin 2 to 60 minutes after the sting and can involve a spectrum of symptoms that range from mild to severe and life threatening.
Moist (dripping wet) tobacco.
I would first take a benedry 25 mg, if you are not allergic to it. Then use some benedryl cream on the sting. If you are allergic to bees, you should go straight to the ER.
take out the sting with tweezers if you can, or pinch it out between your nails Put a slice of tomato on the sting and it will neutralise and stop the sting it in just a minute or two. Had a sting on my leg on holiday in Greece and a pharmacist did this, it worked straight away (he even got his assistant to go to the grocers shop next door to buy a tomato!)
Most people stung will experience a local reaction with redness, pain, swelling and some itching only at the sting site.
A bee sting may remain in the skin, it's important to scrape it away with a blunt instrument to prevent more poison being pumped into the site. Don't try to pull it out!
If in doubt see a doctor.
Before trying any home remedies make sure you aren't allergic to any of the ingredients.
Mild stings can be treated in the following ways:-
Rub wet aspirin on the wound - this will negate the burning and inflammatory sensations due to the venom.
Apply a paste of vinegar, baking soda and meat tenderizer.
Dab apple cider vinegar - this prevents swelling and the spreading of any poison.
My favourite is thyme and rosemary mixed with vinegar.
Important! If the reaction progresses quickly to sites other than the sting site or is followed by difficulty in breathing or a choking sensation, the person is experiencing a systemic allergic reaction (anaphylaxis) requiring emergency medical treatment.

vinegar I believe
Take an anti histamine (hay fever tablet) as that will counter any allergic reaction.
If you're of legal drinking age....a shot of tequila, wait 5 minutes, take another shot, repeat until you can't feel it any more. Lie in a position that you will not lay on your bee sting and by the time you wake up, you won't care about it anymore. Take two Advil with a full glass of water for the hangover.
or...my mom used to use meat tenderizer and tweezers.
the first one is more fun. :o)
My mom used to make a paste with baking soda.
Vinegar for wasps and bicarbonate of soda for bee's, dab on vinegar with a wasp sting it neutralizes it, or make a paste with bicarb and water and spread it on after removing the bee sting it neutralizes it... it's all about how acidic the sting is.
Adolph's Meat Tenderizer or Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) will do the trick.
i was stung camping last yr so i didnt have anything. so my friend who's a nurse told my to mix salava with cigeratte tobacco and put it on the site it worked. sound gross right but helped
Bee sting.
Essentials of diagnosis.
History of bee sting.
Local pain, swelling.
Itching, erythema and wheal formation.
In severe bite, urticaria, oedema of glottis, bronchospasm, etc.
Management.
Remove sting by scraping with blade or finger nail.
Do not grasp with forceps to avoid squeezing more venom from sac to skin.
Local application of antihistaminic cream.
Analgesics like Novalgin.
Oral antihistamine, i.e. Avil 1 tds.
In severe anaphylactic reaction, Adrenaline injection 0.5 ml subcutaneous and corticosteroid-prednisoone 20 mg single dose.
