I was stung by a bee like four days ago. Removed stinger and swelling went away quickly. It does not hurt but it itches like a mother &*(* %$. I am putting anti itch stuff like every half hour on it. I have never been stung by bee only wasps before. When i was stung by wasp I never had this kind of reaction

The poison in the stinger causes the type of reaction for people who are not allergic. If you were allergic, you would have known within minutes. The best way to help with the itching is to take an anti-histamine, like Benadryl, to help with the itching. During the day, take only one pill to avoid the drowsiness. At night, take 2. Not only will it help the itching even better, but it will halp you sleep. I myself have been kept up by a mosquito bite or something of that sort itching like crazy.

I always have severe itching when being stung. Just take some allergy medicine with antihistamine in it for itch blocking. Just don't mix with anti-itch cream.

You may want to take some Benadryl. JUST DO NOT MIX THE PILLS WITH THE ANTI ITCH MEDICINE. Benadryl usually helps with the itch from stings.

All you need is Benadryl. You can buy it off the shelf..you need to treat a bee-sting itch from the inside out...you'll be fine.

You're probably fine. Use Benadryl and watch that site for a few more days. Eighty five percent of all human ailments will get better all by themselves (without medical intervention) within one week.
