A member asked:
How much time should i be alert for emergency symptoms after being stung by a 8 wasps?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
At least for 4-6 hrs: Most serious reactions will occur immediately or within the first 30 minutes. However reactions can be delayed and you want to stay alert and vigilant for many hours after multiple stings.
