Am I allergic to bees?!


Question: Am I allergic to bees!?
On Wednesday of last week, I was stung by a bee!. I didn't know if I was allergic, all the symptoms seemed normal(redness, swelling, and of course stinging)
Then, I would say maybe 3 hours later, the swelling went down and you couldn't even tell I was stung by a bee!.
Well it's been exactly a week since I've been stung, and now the area in which I was stung is randomly really swollen and really itchy!.

I did Google it, but I got mixed answers!.
I asked my pharmacist, and he says it's a light allergic reaction!.

Is it really, or has anyone else gone through this also and not allergic!?
I'm just concerned because it's such a random delayed reaction!.

Answers:
Yes, that's a slight allergic reaction -- from time to time, I get exactly the same reaction!. It's pretty common!.
And it doesn't mean it's going to get more severe another time, if that's something that had occurred to you!.

As far as treating it's concerned, check with your pharmacist!.
Personally, I use a tiny amount of a very mild corticosteroid cream called HC45!. It works brilliantly and is a lot better than inflamed, itchy skin which can so easily get infected!.

im not certain but last summer i got stung by a bee!. i didnt know if i was allergic to them or not so i took more allegra and waited, i didnt have any trouble breathing or that feeling like my throat was shutting, but the area where i got stung was swollen and hurt and itched for 2 weeks, and if i didnt keep hydrocortisone cream on it it itched worse!. so yes we might be allergic to bee stingsWww@Answer-Health@Com

when stung by a bee, those are the typical symptoms every human being goes through!. it doesn't make them allergic!. how ever when a person suffers fainting, extreme swelling that last longer then two days, and possible develops an abscess, that's called an allergy that is in need of medical attention!. you're fine sweetie!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
