Bee sting: Wash area w soap & warm water. Apply ice in 10 min. increments (10 on/10 off). Can try Tylenol, (acetaminophen) aspirin or motrin for pain or Benadryl for swelling. Elevate affected area for swelling. Make paste of 2 parts baking soda & 1 part water & apply. Need tetanus shot every 10 years.
