A member asked:

I was stung by a jelly fish a few months ago and in the area i was stung i am still feeling numbness and a tingling sensation at times. is it normal?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not really.: Jellyfish sting reactions usually only last a few days to a week. If you're still having symptoms a month later, something else is going on. Let your doctor or a dermatologist have a look, and try to determine what that might be.
