Most likely the: stinger came out. If not,the skin will spit the stinger out in about a week. Ice the sore area for 15 min every 2 hrs for next 8 hrs.. Keep foot elevated.

SOAK: ICE WATER for pain relief Make a BAKING SODA "poultice" (Spread it on the wet foot where the stinger is and let it DRY then pull off) Hope this helps! Dr Z BTW fever, chills, swelling of the foot beyond the stung area, head to a Walk In Unit or ER
