Question:

Whats the best way to treat a 16 hr. old wasp sting?

Its seems to be a bad one with some swelling and numbness. It happened on the back of a foot of a 31 year old woman.


Answers:

If it's effecting you after this period of time you may need to get it checked. Most insect stings last a short period of time and people don't even worry about them after that period. 16 hours and experiencing swelling and numbness, I would get it checked out.

Any other time, just the normal reaction I would have applied some neat Lavender, neat clary sage and/or neat Peppermint oil to the infected site.
