Mr. Bob, sometimes I react, sometimes I do not. There are reactive parts of the body: hands feet and the face that tend to be more reactive than other parts of the body.
I?ve been stung since a kid by most flying or crawling critters and never amounted to much except for a jelly fish. Why today do I react and not next week has puzzled my doctors. My physician prescribed prednisone in case I do react. I don?t worry about bee stings, the pain is not so bad when I react.
What to watch out for is restricted breathing, then it?s time for the ER visit. Talk to your doctor and I hope your reaction to bee stings vanished.
In 2017, I got stung 6 times by the same hive same time. Five stings were no issue, one sting in the ankle when full ballistic: tremendous pain in the ankle, swollen on both sides, I was unable to walk for about 12 hrs. Why that single sting was so horrific? The only explanation I can come up with is the stinger hit the bone. Also, I was not able to remove the stinger for 45 minutes. The bee stung me thur the sock. Most painful sting I ever experienced except for the jelly fish. In time, all was well and years later, like I said, I might or might not react.
