Mr Van, Im concerned. Those sting swellings look extreme! How often, on average, would you estimate that you receive stings? I realize you more than likely suit up well.
Good afternoon Mr. Ben, Phil. I obtain a sting about once a month.
However today was the day for another sting. I received a sting today on my left forearm. I was ready as you explained in a previous post, Phil: Benadryl and Zantac, both histamine blockers. I took both within 5 minutes of being stung and boy let me tell you what a difference. I have a red area about 2 square inches, that is all.
I wear gloves and head gear. The bee climbed up my gloves until she found bare skin and landed a stinger at the base of my glove and buried the stinger in my flesh.
What a relief taking your over the counter meds: just 2 inches red instead of half my arm being swollen as pictured.
So, Mr. Ben Framed, I truly appreciate you taking the time to post the remedy in a previous post,
Benadryl and Zantac taken together for bee sting. What a relief, made a huge difference heading your advice for meds; now only a small insignificant red spot is what I experienced this day.
Thank you, Phil. Thank you, Phil. Thank you, Phil. Thank you, Phil. Thank you, Phil. Thank you, Phil.
Well you get the idea. Phil, may you receive Blessings as you have Blessed others.
Van
