I cleaned out a deadout yesterday in the wind. This morning I woke up and I could hardly see. My wife looked up allergies from bee propolis and found out it is quite common. But nobody said what to do for it. Is there a remedy?
antihistamine like benadryl or you can try something like loratadine (claritin). it's less apt to make you sleepy. i have a problem with propolis sometimes also. it gets me early in the year when i am first in the hives. it makes my face itchy. sometimes the inside of my mouth itches :-D
What? No vagisil? :-X
that might burn a bit. i don't know. try it if you want to and let us know. :evil:
You two are bad.
Could the dead out have mold in it?
Allen, i don't think it's mold. it happens to me with healthy hives. it happens in the spring when there is still lots of sticky propolis on the hives. took me a while to figure it out. funny thing is, i don't have allergies....

Took me a week to get the taste out of my mouth from the last time you told me it worked for bee stings :lau:

when I am in my sauna, and propolis is in my fingers will heaten, it produces fumes which irritate eyes. But my eyes do not swell.
You can use Preparation H, just rub a little over your eyebrow and a little under your eye....the skin above and below will tighten up and your eyes will stay wide open for a couple of days. Just don't get it in your eyes or you will not be able to open them for a week or two.....it will work the same whereever you use it...LOL.
