They are just tiny insects. For most people, bee stings are painful, may result to a bit of swelling and tenderness, all of which will be over and forgotten in a few days.

But for those who have allergy to bee stings, it can be fatal. NewsChannel 5 just reported of a man who died because of that.




Anyone with such strong reactions to bee stings should always have antihistamines with them. An injectable dose is advisable especially if there is a high risk of getting in contact with the source of allergies. If you think (or even if you don't!) you need one, consult your allergist regarding your options.
