Suggest Treatment For Soreness,itchiness And Swelling At The Site Of Bee Sting
I got stung by a bee a week ago and today it started itching. I noticed it was red under the skin spreading away from the sting. Then I realized (bottom of my toe) that the stinger was still In! Now it s sore, itchy and red and swollen. Should I be concerned?

hi. I have read your question and understand your concern.
the bee sting has to be removed manually. now it's causing an allergic reaction. so the first step is to get it removed.
I suggest you see your dermatologist and get it removed. meanwhile you can take tab cetrizine once daily for symptomatic relief.
hope this helps. for any further questions please get back to us. thanks.
