Bee stings can be extremely painful and in some cases can even lead to death if not dealt with appropriately. For Persons who have very sensitive skin, they are even more susceptible to a bee attack. The best advice that can be given for a bee sting is to always remove the stinger as soon as you got stung.

Things you will need:

Lavender oil

Honey

Baking soda

Apple cider vinegar

Vinegar

Meat tenderizer

Toothpaste

Antibiotics

Onion

Ammonia

Calamine lotion

Oral antihistamine

Instructions are as follows:

1. Once you take out the stinger, use the honey to the wound to ease the discomfort.

2. Take some vinegar, baking soda and meat tenderizer and mix them together to create a paste and then place it onto the bees sting.

3. Take a fresh papaya whether green or ripe (preferably green) and place it directly onto the wound.

4. After you have put some antibiotics onto a bee sting, add toothpaste directly to the wound and this will help to make it better.

5. Take a piece of onion and place it onto the affected to area to alleviate the pain and stop the swelling.

6. Take some ammonia and put it on the bee sting for quick relief.

7. Mix soap and water and place it onto the affected area two or three times a day until the stings are treated.

8. Use some calamine lotion and rub into the spot where you have been stung, and this will help to take care of the skin.

9. Use some oral antihistamine like Benadryl to help with the sting wound and to help stop inflammation from spreading.

10. Put some ice or cool water to the sting for approximately 10 - 30 minutes to reduce swelling caused from the body's immune system's responses.

11. Use topical hydrocortisone to provide relief from itching and rash. Aspirins like ibuprofen and acetaminophen can also relieve some of the pain.

12. Take some lavender oil and apply one drop to the bee sting without spreading it across to the large section of skin around the wound. This will relief the pain quickly.

13. Take some apple cider vinegar to rub onto the bees sting and this will treat the wound from the bee sting.

14. Take some fresh basil leaves and apply it to the affected area
