In all 18 years of my life, I've had the pleasure of knowing that I've never been stung by a wasp. Until today. I lost my virginity and got 2nds all within a few moments! 🙁 🙁 🙁


Doing a little cleaning, I decided to take my rug out onto my balcony where I have a sheet covering so I have some privacy (also to hide my small grill and kitten which both aren't allowed) the railing. Well, apparently there's a nice happy wasp nest under the sheet as I slapped the rug on the side of the railing all of the sudden I feel what feels like a tasergun to my left forearm. Screamed from the shock (no pun) of instant pain, I dashed inside closed the sliding glass door and beat the daylights out of the wasp that fell to the ground! REVENGE!


Now my arm is killing me, and apparently I got stung twice. What do I apply to the stings to insure that it heals over or relieves pain?

I was thinking along the lines of rubbing alcohol or a cold Corona 😀 😀
 
Owned.

Pics?

A thick paste of baking soda and water will do ... make sure it's a paste, not a liquid.
Pain relief, pop either an aspirin or a beer, but not both.

Wasps leave no stinger, so you don't need to worry about scraping it out. BTW, never pull a stinger out if it's a bee. That just injects more venom. Scrape with the dull edge of a knife.

Welcome to the club. Now you get to find out if you're allergic.

Meat tenderizer usually helps on bee stings and wasp stings. (I have been told it draws out the poison but I don't know) Toothpaste for mosquito bites. 🙂
 
Lol The allergic part is what I was worried about.

And no it doesn't hurt incredibly bad, to the person that said suck it up. I just don't want any kind of infection. Plus I'm a n00b to wasp stings. 🙂
 
if you can still breath then you are OK, if your neck start to swell or having difficulty breathing, then call 911 fast!

It's ok, we can blackmail you now, if you don't handover the computer and LCD you'll loose your rights to the grill and kitten...
