Question
This afternoon, a one-and-a-half-year-old child was stung by the country bee more than ten times. After being stung, the child cried for a while, but there were no other abnormalities, just some redness and swelling. Until now, the child has a slight fever, feels a bit cold, and there is redness around the face and eyes. I’m asking whether medical treatment is needed.
Answer
After being stung by a bee, the wound will immediately become red and swollen, accompanied by a burning pain. At this time, it is immediate to apply a large amount of alkaline water to the wound to neutralize the acid-base, reduce the effect of toxins, and promote blood circulation. If there is onion available, it can be washed and sliced, then directly applied to the wound, which can have a certain effect of promoting blood circulation. The above suggestions are for the question “What should I do if my one-and-a-half-year-old child was stung by the country bee more than ten times this afternoon?” I hope it helps you, and wish you health!
