You need to see a doctor immediately, as it's very possible that an infection is present. I would make a trip to the ER if you can't get in to see your regular doctor immediately.

Since you were stung yesterday, the danger of an allergic reaction should have passed. Chances are you still have the stinger in the wound. If so, remove with tweezers. Put ice on the wound and take a benadryl. Benadryl can help with the swelling and pain/itching even when it is not an allergic reaction. If the stinger is NOT still in the wound, you may have a sensitivity to bee stings (as sensitivity is when you have an abnormal or exaggerated reaction that is not an allergic reaction). Follow above steps, but include washing the wound well (but gently) with warm, soapy water. If you notice itchy, raised splotches on your skin (hives), and/or develop any shortness of breath or dizziness TAKE A BENADRYL AND CALL911!!!

It sounds like you are having an allergic reaction to the bee sting. Have a Doctor look at it. All the symptoms that you wrote are signs of a allergy and I get like that when I get stung and I have an allergy to bees,hornets,yellow Jackets,wasps. Right now put ice on it and keep an eye on it because some people go into shock from it. Take a Benedryl and that will help with the itching. Keep it iced.

Hi, there. I agree that the possibility of a severe allergic reaction is past, but you obviously have something serious going on. Call your doctor and make an appointment now.
Until then, make a paste of baking soda and water and cover the bite with the paste. Let it sit for 10 - 30 minutes and then gently wash off. If you have any Tea Tree Oil or Lavender Essentail Oil, add a couple drops of each to the baking soda paste. They will intensify its effect, will reduce the pain, and will help santize and cleanse the wound area.
The baking soda will pull the venom and toxins out of the bit and will help remove the stinger if it's still in there. DO NOT TRY TO REMOVE THE STINGER ON YOUR OWN. Squeezing it to remove it will wind up squirting the remaining venom straight into your skin. Your body will force the stinger out on its own ... let your body do its job and handle this naturally.
Taking a normal dose of Benadryl (diphenhydramine) if ok, but will hopefully not be needed. If you have any handy, drink dandelion root and red clover tea, they will help bolster your system and help cleanse out the nasty stuff left by the bee.
But ... again ... call your doctor and ask his/her opinion of what should be done. Good luck!

That jogs my memory of a comedian tale: a guy and lady circulate out on a picnic. He is going away to alleviate himself, and gets stung by using a bee on his penis. He runs back screaming, and the lady drives him to the closest emergency room. in basic terms previously the well-being practitioner sees the guy, the lady pulls him aside and asks, "checklist, is there any way you aspects him something to get rid of the soreness, yet circulate away the swelling?" :)
