I got stung by a wasp today, twice. Once on my knee and once on my back below my arm. Both of them look to have swelled up to the size of a penny. Is this normal? The same thing usually happens with mosquito bites because after they bite, I usually get a swollen spot the size of a penny. Are these normal or am I allergic?

  1. refering to jojo's answer- if you don't have meat tenderizer, baking soda or activated charcoal work miracles.  put some on a paper towel, add water to make it a paste, then hold it on for 15-30 mins.  


  2. Usually can't breath, need epic pen, one shot in the leg and off too the hospital to give IV rinse systems. When throat swells-up. Lot's of

    bugs leave marks, fleas, misquotes, bee's, But a tick bite is hard to find

    Causes Lyme disease

  3. well, you might be allergic to mosquito's, but wasp bites are normally about that size. i wouldn't worry about them.

    to immediately suck out the poison of your bite (depending on how long ago you got stung) is to take meat tenderizer and put it on your sting with a drop of water to make a paste.  just let it sit and dry. it won't hurt, but will extract the injected poison.

    good luck :)
