"Bee/wasp Stings"
 
   My kids have gotten stings lately, not from bees, but wasps. Anyway, being a peds RN I have tried every sting remedy known to man. The best one I have found is to make a paste with meat tenderizer & water and apply it to the sting area. Leave on for 5 minutes and wash off - you can leave it on longer if need be. You will have a happy child, and a happy mom. It neutralizes the poison and works quickly. I have not tried it on mosquito bites, but I will have to soon to see if it works for them also. : )

   It sounds wierd, but Preparation H seems to work very well, too. Itshing, burning, swelling, etc...same symptoms, same results.
