A member asked:
What would happen if i pop the puss of the bee sting?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It will drain, then: scab or crust over. No harm done but it does cause an opening in the skin that could potentially increase risk of a secondary skin infection. Cold compresses help the most of swelling and itching, as well as oral antihistamines like Benadryl (diphenhydramine) or Zyrtec.
