A doctor has provided 1 answer
Wasp Stings: Seek medical care for milder allergic reactions: Swelling of > 4 inches, nausea, GI cramps, diarrhea. Can try Tylenol, (acetaminophen) aspirin or Motrin for pain or Benadryl for swelling. Make paste of 2 parts baking soda & 1 part water & apply. Need tetanus shot every 10 years.
