Answer #1

I agree with diseasous. Go get a shot. I’ve had that happen to me a few times and the shots really work well. Also get yourself an ointment like stop itch or antisan to help with the itchiness and swelling.

Answer #2

Go to the hospital and get an epinephrine shot, because it sounds like your’e mildly allergic. I’ve been stung about a dozen times and nothing like what you describe has ever happened. I advise you to seek professional medical assistance as soon as possible!

Answer #3

cigarette tobacco.. wet it and leave it on there
