SOAK: in warm water...apply a POULTICE of BAKING SODA (Make a "paste" and apply on the area where the STINGER is probably still lodged...wait until the paste hardens then soak it off> ICE may help both the swelling and the pain so after you do the above use local ice and elevate the foot!Hope this is helpful Dr Z
