While bees are famous for their waggle dance and honey, they are also notorious for inflicting painful stings. When a bee stings, it usually leaves behind a barbed stinger in the skin. The stinger is what releases a venom that destroys the red blood cells and skin mast cells. In response, the body activates the pain receptor cells and produces histamines, which cause pain, itching, and swelling.
Bee stings, although can be very painful, tend to heal on their own without complication. They rarely require a visit to the hospital or clinic, provided the symptoms are mild to moderate.
Percy Homestead’s Sting B Gone Salve takes the pain and itch out of the sting. If you are stung by any flying insect follow these quick tips to get relief.
Remove the stinger by gently scraping with a credit card or fingernail. Don’t use tweezers as more venom can be squeezed into the skin.
Wash the area with cool water and soap then gently dry. Apply Sting B Gone Salve to the area several times a day to relieve pain, swelling and itching.
If you experience shortness of breath or trouble breathing after a bee sting seek medical attention immediately.
