Does a bee attack for no reason?<\/span><\/h2>\nTo begin with, it should be noted that a bee will not attack a person without reason. It stings only in the most extreme case, and only for its own protection. Therefore, the worst thing you can do when meeting with a bee is to start waving your hands. This way you will only attract its attention and provoke a sting.<\/span><\/p>\nAfter the sting, the bee dies and this is rather good news: wasps, for example, can attack more than once. The insect dies because the serrations on the stinger cling to soft skin. By making sharp jerks to free itself, the bee rips out its sting and with it a part of its intestines, and then it dies.<\/span><\/p>\nYou should not kill the bee at the moment of stinging, because its body will then release a special substance that acts as an alarm signal and causes rage in its congeners. As a result, you may be attacked by other bees.<\/span><\/p>\nCan a bee sting kill you?<\/span><\/h2>\nA person with an allergy to bee venom can also die from a single bee sting. It is also dangerous when the sting is embedded in the lip area, soft or hard palate, or tongue. In this case, there is a pronounced local reaction in the form of severe swelling, which can block the upper airways, and the person simply suffocates. It is necessary to get the injured person to a doctor as soon as possible!<\/span><\/p>\n![\"wild](\"https:\/\/my-honeyextractor.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/298620922_430065149139775_8355489603946426076_n-819x1024.jpg\")

- In no case do not scratch the affected area, as it spreads the poison to the surrounding tissues and increases the risk of infection. To relieve pain and swelling, use a cold compress.<\/span><\/li>\n
- After treating the wound, take an antihistamine, even if you have not had any allergic reactions before.<\/span><\/li>\n
- You can use ointments with an antihistamine effect, they will help relieve the symptoms.<\/span><\/li>\n
- Drink as much liquid as possible before the swelling goes down. Avoid drinking alcohol, as it may only make the swelling worse.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
