I got Stung by a Wasp this weekend!! AAAAWwwwww?

Question: What do I need to do as far as taking care of a wasp sting. I put alcohol on it and tabacco, what else do I need to do?

Answers:
Have you made sure the stinger is no longer in your skin.Make sure you have completely removed it.I found placing ice to the area helped the swelling and use anti-bacterial ointment to help aid the healing.It will begin to itch so be careful not to scratch it.Use calamine lotion to stop this.Good luck I lnow it had to hurt I've been stung before.

Other Answers:

baking soda and water.combine and make a paste and apply to the sting.if it gets really bad, see your doctor as you might be slightly allergic don't bother it let it heal

---

Take some ibuprofen to reduce pain and swelling and put an ice pack on the area where the sting is.

You put tobacco on it? I don't know if that is a good idea.
It'll heal on it's own, just put a band-aid on it.
