Title: Bee stings
Post by: karissalayne21 on July 30, 2018, 09:37:55 PM
After being stung, has anyone's neck still feel swollen even days after the sting?

Stings to my face seem to last a couple of days, especially around the eyes. Stings anywhere else are about like a skeeter bite or less. Sometimes it will leave a small bruise on my arm.

I can't really answer your question because I've never been stung on the neck.  Do you have swelling of the neck when you are stung elsewhere on the body?  If so, that might --  might--  be cause for concern.  I think we all react a little differently to bee stings.  Let's see what others say.
Welcome to Beemasters, by the way.  Feel free to ask questions.  There's a lot of knowledge on this website and you'll find a lot of generous, helpful people ready to offer advice -- maybe several opposing opinions on any topic, but all sincere.

Welcome to Beemaster.
If you were stung on or close to the neck then that would bee normal. My wife used to stay swelled up for several days. By the way, she is starting to not react to the stings.

Just check your zipper before you pee, had that happen over the weekend. :(

There's a little icon under the name and location that indicates gender.  You might want to think about your post. :embarassed:

Beepro,
Are you trying to say that you got stung?
