Bee sting?!
Question: Okay I was just getting in my car and I felt a sharp pinch on my side/back . I put my hand back there and felt something so I jumped out of my car and looked at my side. I saw a brown thing sticking out of me so I grabbed it. It has been a ahalf hour and its stinging really bad. It has a quarter sized red lump around it surrouned by like a 4 inch red circle. There is one red dot in the middle. Does this sound like a bee sting? How long til it stops stinging?

Something that works great on bee stings to draw out venom, and takes down swelling is a regular white potato.
If you have one, cut off about a quarter of it, then gently rub the white of the potato on the red dot in the middle of the sting, moving in a circular motion, then just hold the potato where the sting spot is located for a few minutes. You will notice that the potato will begin to get wet and almost look like it is slightly foamy. That is the venom being drawn out. When that happens, pat the skin dry, cut a new section of the potato, exposing a new portion, gently rub, then hold again. Do this for about ten minutes and repeat every half hour to an hour. I am allergic to some stings and spider bites as well. This method really does work. Some Bactine antiseptic also helps with pain and itching. It's worth a try, but if you really start to feel lousy, call your physician, you may be having an allergic reaction that needs medical attention!
Feel Better!
yeahh sounds like a bee sting. it could be a few hours till the pain stops. just ice it and take advil it will go away soon dont worry :)
Crush a couple aspirin to make a paste and put it on the spot. Should take the pain and swelling out. Try it! It works.

Bee stings last about a day or two put some ice on it and take some asprin.
Baking soda and water. Mix them to make a paste and apply to the area. You can also use meat tenderizer. Apply ice.
