My daughter was stung by a bee on Monday. Her foot is still swollen and is even starting to bruise. Yesterday she did not feel well...upset stomach, headache. (Not sure if that was from the sting.) what can I do to make the swelling go down? I ve tried benedryl and ice packs.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The symptoms seem to be related to bee sting.
I suggest using an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg dairy.
I also suggest using a steroid cream for local application.
If the symptoms continue, I suggest to use steroid shots.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
