Guest guest Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 You can also make a paste out of dirt and water (basically, make some mud). Put that on the sting and the pain and swelling will be gone quickly. I once was on my way to a Springsteen concert and got stung by a wasp on my foot (on my foot, of all things, when I was planning on dancing the night away). I quickly made some mud and put it on the sting. By the time I got down to the Spectrum the pain and swelling was gone and I did dance the night away.<G> Sharyn From: health [mailto:health ] On Behalf Of Suzanne No matter if its a bee sting, wasp sting, or ant bite...mash up some garlic so that the juices are released and apply to the affected area. The pain is gone almost instantly and the swelling starts to go down Place honey on sting withing 30 seconds pain gone leave for about 5 mins. ( some tingling and pain when applied) Cut a white onion in half - apply onion/juice on sting Make a paste (just enough to cover the sting) table salt and a drop or two of vinegar. Apply directly. almost instantly draws out stinger No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG.

Guest guest Posted May 8, 2008 Report Share Posted May 8, 2008 Springsteen concert - I would put up with a wasp sting to go to one!!! Have you seen the Roy Orbison special on PBS that has Springsteen in it? It is cute - Roy is calmly singing and letting his voice float out. Springsteen is singing like he is wrenching every note from his toenails up. A great concert. I see it a couple of times each year on PBS. Gayla Always Enough RanchAcampo, Californiaaeranch@...
