A member asked:
Hi there, i have a 10 month old boy that has a large swelling on his stomach that looks like a its from a sting. its as big as a prune?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Insect sting : If there is a stinger, it may be removed with forceps. The swelling may represent a large insect bite reaction. If so, apply calamine, antihistamine lotion and 1% hydrocortisone to the area. If there is an increase in swelling, redness or fever, please see a physician right away.
