If you leave a stinger in, what do you do?
Question:
Answers:
This may be too late of me, but, DO NOT disinfect and DO not use tweezers. If you apply pressure to the bee sting you may release more venom into your friend's wound. Scrape it out sideways with your fingernail and put an ice pack on it. Seeing it was in so long, get them to the doctor.
disinfect, and pull out with a tweasers
Try tweezers and a magnifying glass.
I've heard you can try tape..put it on and pull it off. The sticker the tape (like packing tape) the better or put white glue over it, let it dry then pull it off.
The skin will eject the stinger in due course, much like a sliver. If it is infected, an antibiotic should be applied. What I do with slivers, for example, is hold the end of a needle under a flame to sterilize it and then pick open the skin around the sliver until it is exposed enough to pull it out with a pair of tweezers.
Wow, that's bad. Tell her that she has to tke out the stinger, fast, or else it could get infected! But don't jst use your fingers, because if you do the stinger might rip and not all come out of her skin. Instead, use a credit card to get it out, and then put something cold over it.
use a credit card or a finger nail and scrape it out -if you use tweezers it could inject more venom in to your friend--
