Ice On A Wasp Sting

The pain from a wasp sting can last for up to 72 hours and is one of the most painful insect stings out there, especially if it is a yellow jacket. The pain can persist in intense waves; stopping every so often, then growing once again and felt all over your body. Using ice can bring down the swelling and immediately relieve pain. A few important things to remember are: First, you must act fast when a wasp stings you or someone you know. It is important because yellow jackets leave behind venom even after they die (but only if they sting right through). Second, if the person being stung can’t breathe properly, don’t panic! Give them two minutes to wake up before doing anything else. Finally, it is best to have an adult deal with the situation as this may be a serious reaction called anaphylaxis . If you get stung by a wasp, you should try to put ice on it. This will make the pain go away faster.

Ice On A Wasp Sting

What home remedies can you use for wasp, hornet and bee stings? Find out below:

Ice

Ice is a great way to help reduce the swelling from a wasp sting as well as both bees and hornet stings, the cold temperature slows down the blood flow to the insect sting.

To treat insect stings using ice take an ice cube, or an ice pack and place it on the wasp sting for around 20 minutes. This will help with the pain and reduce the swelling.

Note: If using ice cubes wrap in a paper towel or a damp cloth to protect the affected area.

Garlic

Garlic acts as a pain relief for insect stings. For this home remedy crush a clove of garlic and slather it on the sting. Make sure the juices from the garlic are applied to the sting (this is what makes it an effective home remedy). After that is complete place a plaster on the affected area and let the garlic do its magic.

Onion

Another vegetable which is great for treating insect stings is onions. Simply cut an onion in half and place it (flesh side down) on the insect sting, pressing gently until the pain has reduced.
