Many are afraid of bees, because the bee sting can trigger and allergic reaction to the body, especially those having a hypersensitive immune response. Have you ever been stung by a bee?.If ever you are stung by a bee, what will you do first and why?

Well the first thing I do is say "ouch!" and swear heh *jokes*.
I've been stung quite a few times, not for many years though. I used to just rinse my foot under warm water and that was about it.

I have not experienced being stung by a bee but i remember when i was a child and a neighbor got stung that a family member put some cane vinegar to it and i heard someone said it is to counter the effect of the sting and relieve the pain.

I have been stung by a bee when I was 17 years old, the mother of my friend put crushed garlic on the stinged part and it really helped me

i have been stung by a bee before and my mother rubbed an onion over it to remove the sting that might have been left behind.Then she applied white tooth paste to neutralise the acid in the sting and to bring down pain and the burning sensation.That gave a great relief.
