| Benedryl..... If you are having a reaction as severe as that so quickly, please be very aware of how you are feeling. If you start feeling tighness in your chest OR if you start having trouble swallowing CALL 911 immediately! |

| Also, get some ice on the area and use vinegar or lemon juice to draw out any poison that might remain.

| I've always found that using Meat tenderizer takes the pain and itching away. Add water to the Meat tenderizer to make a paste and put it on the sting.

Donating YT 500 Club Member | A baking soda paste helps absorb the stuff, too. Yes, take a Benadryl. |

| Benadryl. But a note, don't use the cream and the oral -- both go into your bloodstream and cause overdose. . . This happened to a family member, they got a bite had a rash, rubbed cream to take away the itching and took the oral to stop further reaction. She was okay, but she did spend some time in the emergency room. Sorry you got stung.
