Just came back from the emergency room after my husband had an allergic reaction to several bee stings. He got hives on his feet after being stung on his arm and ear several times. I was checking this site for home remedies, and went to check on him with baking soda and vinegar on a washcloth and saw hives on his feet and legs. I immediately took him to the ER. While on the way, his throat started to get tight, and by the time we got to the hospital he was having trouble breathing. Four hours later, after steroids and IV antihistamine, he is fine. Thank you!!!! Save my husband's life. Thanks for the advice! Just came back from the emergency room after my husband had an allergic reaction to several bee stings.

Then I hold a cut raw onion right on the sting. It's suppose the draw out the poison. I'm allergic to bee stings and this always reduces the size of the bite if I do it right away. You'll still have some itching afterwards. You can apply the onion as much as you want throughout the day and it does help a bit.

When we would step on bees as children at the local pool, my mom would slather on a little bit of the mixture, cover with a bandaid, and lay us down for a nap. When we woke up, the stinger would be stuck to the bandaid and the pain would be gone. Also works with splinters! I can vouch for the mixture of bakind soda and water.
