Arthus Reaction: It is evident that his body didn't like the bee and has had a significant allergic reaction to the bite. This is not uncommon and usually represents the blood vessels leaking fluid out to surround any injected bug vomit to prevent it from getting into the blood. I like to look at bites if they get that intensity of a reaction and be sure infection is not setting in.Have it checked.
