Just to tell everyone about a product that I’ve found helpful…it is really effective at treating things like fire ant bites, as well as bee or wasps stings and other insect bites/stings. It’s an ointment called Stops the Sting that relieves pain when applied to the affected area almost immediately. It also neutralizes the venom and helps minimize itching, swelling, and blisters. I think it’s a relatively new product though, so you might not be able to find it unless you order it online. If you want to look at the website, it’s www.stopsthesting.com.

I got stung by a jellyfish on both legs about 2 weeks ago. The lifeguard said it was the worst sting he had ever seen. We tried everything the internet said to do, even letting someone urinate on it. Nonthing works!!! We finally put some topical Benadryl on it and it was better within 30 minutes. The next 6 days were great... no pain at all and it looked as if it was healing. On the 7th day, I started having pain, swelling and fever in both legs all over again. I finally had to go to the doctor. He gave me an antibiotic and some Prednisone.
Moral of the story... don't let anyone pee on your jellyfish sting... just buy some topical Benadryl and see a doctor as soon as you can.
