Natural Remedy For Bee Stings – How to Relieve the Sting
Getting stung by a bee is no fun. When it does happen we want relief NOW and to be able to use items found around the house to relieve the pain. There are a variety of items found in the home that will make an immediate natural remedy for bee stings that will relieve the pain and swelling.
These are to be used on people who do not have Bee Sting allergies. If the person stung experiences severe swelling to the area, swelling to the face or mouth, difficulty breathing, blurry vision, dizziness, or hives – head for the ER. This is a severe reaction and can be life threatening. Sometimes people don’t develop A Bee Sting allergy until later in life or after a previous sting or other chemical change in their system so they may not be aware that they have an allergy until the reaction sets in.
The very best treatment for a bee sting is avoidance and bee stings often are. Of course there are situations of stepping into a nest or disturbing a hive and being stung repeatedly, but for the most part bees, not yellow jackets or wasps, like to be left alone and are not aggressive. Bees die after they sting and will only sting if they or their hive is under threat. It’s their last resort. If you wave your arms around or try to swat it, you’re telling the bee you’re ready for a fight, so unless you plan to outrun the bee it’s much better to try to move gently and quietly. If a bee lands on you try blowing on it gently to get it to move on and you’ll be much less likely to be stung.
If you are stung, first of all remove the stinger to limit the amount of venom released into your system. Clean the sting as you would clean any wound to prevent infection. Then you’ll want to find relief for the itching and swelling!
