What can you do for a Wasp Sting?

Question

What can you do to reduce pain and swelling from the sting? Thank you!

Answer 1

Get ground dirt and put in a cup, then add water to make mud, then just put mud on the sting part, my mom used to do that when I was little kid and got stung by a bee, she makes mud and puts it on, it helps alot

Answer 2

Cold water compress and take some antihistamines.  The antihistimines will reducre the pain and the cold compress will halt the swelling.  If you are slightly allergic and it really bothers you, your Physician will give you a prescription for some hydrocortisone creme.  That will nuke bump and the pain.  (Of course if you are highly allergic you should go to emergency, but I'm assuming you aren't, but the antihistimines will help with the pain).

Answer 3

Cold water on a washcloth :).

Answer 4

get some baking soda and put some water in it.

it should make a sloppy kind of paste. Apply it to the area and leave it there. Sit down to watch TV or listen to music, etc. Take it off in about 30 min. If  you want to you can do it again.
