Yes.: I just got bit by a bee last month for the first time in decades. I was surprised by how much it hurt. Put Benadryl (diphenhydramine) cream on it and an over the counter spray to stop the pain of stings. It should go away in a few hours. if it does not, get checked. If you have lip or tongue swelling, trouble swallowing, shortness of breath or chest pain go to an ER or Call 911 because you may be allergic.
