This was my first time getting stung by a yellow jacket, I’m curious if other peoples symptoms and time line were the same as mine. Let me know how it went for you!
I got hit today at work. I have that amount of red and swollen within a few hours. I am about hour 5 pain and itching. Used baking soda and essential oils, they helped a little bit. The redness seems to be going already but I’m watching to see. The area I was stung instantly was dime to nickel sized probably double stacked that has evened out with the rest. If I think about it I’ll update myself in a day or so and compare. (Update 36hr) 1 1-/2 inch bigger than other arm. Super itchy and stiff. Definitely seems exactly as yours. Hand is stiff also. Ice definitely helped when on but spot on to your video.
Thanks for sharing I got bit in about the exact spot you did mine did never really did get too itchy & did not bother me except for concern of the swelling the Exact swelling you had Well your still alive & guess I will be too 😂👍 🐝
Five years ago I was stung by what I thought was a wasp. I sat on the ground to pull the weed patches from around my trees. Suddenly, I felt an undeniable, sharp piercing prick on my left leg above my ankle. I grabbed my pant leg, jumped from the ground, and headed into my garage to remove my pants hoping to find whatever bit me, but all I saw was a tiny little red mark. I turned my pants inside out and shook them several times before putting them back on. Not knowing what bit me, and to play it safe, I took a Benadryl tablet. Four hours went by and my foot began to itch. I tried 3 popular anti-itch ointments. Nothing was working. Knocked myself out with Benadryl. The next morning I awoke to a very red, hot, swollen foot, and leg, itching, and a fever of 102. Blew my mind. That afternoon, I went to the E.R. I was given an anti-biotic shot and a 500mgs CPac for 14 days. I have a lot of trees on my property, and a rocky pond, where a group of yellow jacket wasp thugs like to hang out every summer. Realizing that fact, I thought I was bitten by a yellow jacket. The following year, it happened again. I was clipping my ornamental bushes when I felt a familiar prick. A black wasp flew out of my garden glove as I pulled my hand out of the glove. The wasp bit me on my wrist. By the next day, my arm was red, itchy, red, and swollen up to my elbow. Angry little buggers!
😂 so thankfully I found your video... I was stung almost 36 hrs ago... I thought no big deal.. it burned for a while when it happened and was just sore all night. Then I got to work at 7a.m. and it decides to swell 2hrs into my shift. I'm currently at about 4-5 inches of swelling from the outside of my wrist down my forearm. About an inch and a half up towards my hand. An about 2.5 inches wide. Pretty firm. Not much heat..
I was taken to the hospital after I fell into a yellow jackets nest hiking down to a river two years ago. With over 26 stings, it was the most painful thing I have ever experienced in my life. Thank goodness there was a river nearby. I was able to jump in. My husband said he could see the whole swarm flying over my head. The swelling in my body was so severe. About 12 hours later, the pain turned into itching. It was awful. Took me several days to heal. It was an experience I will never forget.
I had a friend who stepped on one when we were kids. The same thing happened to him. I took my shirt off and started hitting them off of him. He was stung so many times, but luckily was okay. I’m glad you were okay!
I got stung about 24 times hiking as well, id rather break my hand again, The itch afterwards will not go away oh man, its been 3 days and im so freaking itchy everywhere lmao..Bastards.
I'm a beekeeper and often get stung. Tonday I got stung on the finger by a yellow jacket and it's 10x worse than getting stung by a bee,. Welling like a SOB and sore.
Got stung yesterday on the arm. Not as bad as what you’re experiencing, more tightness now, but man that initial sting felt like a hot poker. It burned for a good 5-10 minutes after.
My suggestion: Neutralize the histamines and acids from the bite with straight ammonia right away Take 25-50mg Benadryl tablet to fight histamines (itching). Take 400mg Advil to fight Prostaglandins (pain). Go to sleep, the quicker the better with all these steps
I'm on day 3 of being stung by a swarm of yellow jackets. I was working in my yard and felt an intense pain in my foot, when I looked down I had yellow jackets on my arm and leg ,I slowly walked away and yelled to my friend to get the hose. She said I had a swarm around me! They got in my hair too! I have a total of 7 stings, oddly the ones in my scalp don't hurt or itch today. But the one on my ankle knee and wrist are hot, stiff and very red. The ice doesn't seem to help me. Benadryl and Tylenol has helped. The vinegar took itching away and so does the baking soda.
This is VERY similar to my experience couple months ago. Got stung on my left hand, hurt for a while, subsided, but next day, swelling itching, achy...Took about a week to fully heal. First time I've ever been stung by one too!
Two weeks ago, I had 4 yellow jackets attack my left hand while I was working in my woods. They stung me repeatedly before I realized what was happening. I estimate at least 12 stings in the hand. The hand was paralyzed for an hour and it felt like a hammer was hitting the hand for 24 hours. There was no swelling. I used Sting Ease, an antihistamine, Tylenol and a poison ivy spray. The hand is nearly back to normal.
Thank you for sharing your experience! I'm glad to have found your video 😅 I was freaking out & wondering of other peoples experiences & timeline as well! I got stung by the yellow jacket on my thigh & I'm on 36 hrs. & it is driving me insanely itchy 😂 there is a lot of red hot swelling & benadryl, & coritizone is not working!!!
I just got stung on my wrist... thanks for your info... and I find that Lidocaine 5% is very helpful and it's gel or patch forms can be easily applied to the surrounding areas. Elevating a part of the body like the wrist can also help limit swelling
My neighbor told me to grab 3 different leaves from the yard (I used one from my rose bush, one from a weed, and one from a flowering vinca) smash them with your fingers till they are damp and rub it on the site. Helps take the heat out. This did work for me, not a total cure all but second sting was a lot less painful than the first 😊
When I get stung by a yellow jacket or a bald faced hornet, I have a fairly strong reaction if the location is above the waste. When stung on the legs, any discomfort is forgotten soon afterwards. A honeybee sting (I'm a beekeeper) is a soft kiss, compared with those wasps. It's often advisable to get on antibiotics after a yellow jacket sting, as they frequent garbage cans and even feces for nourishment towards the end of the summer.
Yup feel your pain. i get bit at least once a year cutting my hedge. your time line is correct. after 48 hours is the worst. its gets better after that. great illustration....
Mountain climbing in the Arizona mountains the guy I was with came down past me quickly saying nothing. When I looked up about a 1000 came at me! Al I could do was fight which I did swatting them for 45 seconds without one sting. Not being able to get me until they jumped on my head which thankfully I had long hair they had to get through it to my skull which they did. I started pulling them out one by onè feeling every sting until I got mad telling the other guy get over here, and help although he was useless. I was stung 30 to 35 times on the head before it was over none anywhere else I fought like bruce lee! After it was over I grabbed a rock holding on feeling the venom in my head for 10 minutes I climbed down then overall recovering excellent fine no swelling the next day. 2nd time in desert floor one stung me coming out of a bush on my hand with swarm coming out behind him I ran through cactus like a running back while my friend said keep running they are all behind you which was so hard the cactus needles are vicious, but I out ran them. My hand swelled up like a balloon with a doctor saying if it get's any bigger we will have to slice it. I though just let it blow up then! 3rd time riding my motorcycle fully covered jacket, and helmet with only one spot vulnerable my neck Right on my artery one sting I pulled over in the middle of nowhere getting off my bike dropping straight to the ground in anafalactic shock An elderly couple seen me luckily pulling over speeding to the hospital saving my life. The doctors over medicated me bringing my heart rate to 1 beat about every 3, or 4 seconds. They had shot me up 3 times before the got my heart rate right. So now I tell people the most dangerous thing in the desert is yellowjackets🥵
The big question is how and have you destroyed the hive? I have a zero tolerance policy on wasps and hornets and I frequently go around looking for paperwasp nests on the house and fence in order to destroy them.
My son was mowing the lawn.... They got up his shorts and stung him seven times on or around his private parts. He was in the hospital for six days and nights. He was almost 17 and enjoyed the nurses checking and caring for his junk.
This happened to me except I’m female. I got stung five times by yellow wasps in the groin! Unbeknownst to me I’m severely allergic! I had a delayed reaction. Hours later I had hives all over my body and I was literally unrecognizable! The pain is incredible! After that I never wore shorts to do yard work and kept my epi-pen on me. So glad you son is ok and enjoyed the nurses lol. I’m a pediatric nurse😂
Hey simple man ..well done my brother🎉🎉😂😂❤❤ 36 hours and the itch and swelling is still spreading...my god the itch is insatiable....and it's not the skin but muscle and fat underneath ..to the bone....squeezing satisfied the itch better than scratching skin...anyway will get back to you...thank-you so much for sharing...I needed to know it's normal !!🎉🎉❤❤
I was just stung 10 times by yellow jackets in my legs and thumb while cutting the grass on Saturday. Nest is definitely along the fence line. Still kind of hurts but def itchy. No swelling
Yeah I work with my uncle who has a lawn business and I’m on the weed eater most of the time, I actually got stung 3 days ago by a yellow jacket they hurt like hell!
I think if you apply ammonia shortly after a sting it helps neutalize it. I use it on fireant stings, and I think the logic is the same as peeing on a jellyfish sting. Urine has ammonia, and I guess the poison in most stinging invertibrates is the same.
A throbbing type of pain with swelling, lasts 8 to 20 hours, not much sleep at night for me. Then the itching becomes miserable. I'd much rather be stung by paper wasps.
Thanks for sharing I got stung Mon evening messing with a log and they got me 4 times in the hand and arm. It’s now Wed morning and I haven’t slept to well but I’m like you I tried all kinds of creams but ice has been my friend. I was heading to insta care at 8 but I think I’ll wait it out now that I know I won’t die lol 😂
I was stung by one yesterday on tip of baby finger. Washed it, put hydrogen peroxide & rubbing alcohol on it. Burned for a while, but no swelling or itching. Doesn't even hurt today
@@SimpleManChannelI got stung on my eyelid 6 days ago. The swelling was so strange as it moved over my face. I used x-strength Benadryl + ice packs. Tried a wet tea bag for a while (because it was so close to eye), but didn’t feel anything noticeable. Apparently it just has to run its course.
Don’t want to disturb you but this is kind of stupid. After the first second you immediately take action. Find yourself salt. Take a piece of toilet paper or the like. Make it moist. Put the salt on the paper and hold it for 10 minutes on the area where you got stung. No swelling at all. Itchy probably for a few days!
My dad moved when he was five and was playing on some logs when they stung him he was rushed to the hospital with 100 sting or so he is highly allergic I was also stung as a kid with about 15 stings I was 3 😂
Look … I don’t what the f@ck is going on this summer … been stung twice already!! The pain is very high, I’d say 7 out of 10 if not 8. Yes pain subdues after 5/10 minutes and after a few hours the swelling starts .. it’s crazy!! Got stung yesterday right on the side of my foot cause I made the mistake to go in the back yard with flip-flops… ugh living in Florida. Anyway been getting rid of some small wasp hives. One was on the grass and somehow got me! This morning I could not walk.. and i put hydrocortisone last night.. Hitches a lot and the area hurts when I stand… and it’s swollen.. people just be careful out there and avoid these little monsters
It was 2 or 3 weeks ago I was cutting the back yard on a Saturday and suddenly I felt something stinging the top of my left foot. I couldn't tell what it was the the next thing I knew I was being swarmed by yellow jackets. I had run over and in-ground nest that wasn't there the last time I cut the grass. I ran up to the back deck and pulled my shorts off (I wasn't wearing a shirt) and got in the house. I had been stung 7 times. 2 times on top of my left foot, on the achillies of my left foot, my calf, on the back of my left leg, the underside of my left forearm, and on the back of my head close to my right ear. My wife put some baking soda (powder?) mixed with water on the stings. About 3 hours or so later I was hurting really bad. I remember thinking I can't take this pain much longer. It was very intense. It occurred to me to try some ibuprofen (4 tablets) and it really reduced the pain. I kept taking them every 8 hours after that through Sunday. By Monday 2 days later I was having no pain at all and really recovered. I still have the scabs though. They are going away slowly.
I received 17 stings last night when knocking into a planter where they had gone condo development on me. Attacked me on my ear, shoulder area and arm. I ended up going to the ER as I was having some strong reactions. I am on Prednisone and Claritin for the next few days. Some of them are really burning this evening. I used baking soda paste and apple cider vinegar with some relief. I had an antihistamine cream that I had purchased two years ago from Amazon and that seems to give me the best result. Needless to say, pest control folks will be handling the removal from here on out.
I got stung by one of those. I think its the same thing. They are very small and fly around fast. You usually get stung before you know they are there. My sting hurt a lot for about 4 hours. Then it subsided only to return that night. I could not sleep well and ran a few degrees fever. It lasted overall about 24 hours. Very painful. I had a man come remove the nest because i didnt want anymore of those stings.
This was my first time getting stung by a yellow jacket, I’m curious if other peoples symptoms and time line were the same as mine. Let me know how it went for you!

Hello
Don’t want to disturb you but this is kind of stupid.
After the first second you immediately take action.
Find yourself salt. Take a piece of toilet paper or the like. Make it moist. Put the salt on the paper and hold it for 10 minutes on the area where you got stung.
No swelling at all. Itchy probably for a few days!
I should have tried that right away. At first it wasn’t too bad and I was busy so I figured it would be nothing, but I was wrong lol
@@SimpleManChannel it’s never to late to learn. There’s always a chance for a next time.

Yikes!

What is shown in most of your video isn't a yellow jacket. I believe it is a European paper wasp.

I got stung by a honeybee when I was a kid . The pain was a 12 on 10.
Why don't u consult a doctor bro ?
I just always prefer to let my body handle it whenever possible
@@SimpleManChannel true . I got stung by a bee when I was 10 - 12 y / o .
Now I'm 32 and i still remember vividly how intense the pain was 😅😅😅😅
I didn't think a honey bee had that kind of pain with a sting, maybe it was another kind of bee or wasp, or hornet.
It was 2 or 3 weeks ago I was cutting the back yard on a Saturday and suddenly I felt something stinging the top of my left foot. I couldn't tell what it was the the next thing I knew I was being swarmed by yellow jackets. I had run over and in-ground nest that wasn't there the last time I cut the grass.

My wife put some baking soda (powder?) mixed with water on the stings.
About 3 hours or so later I was hurting really bad. I remember thinking I can't take this pain much longer. It was very intense. It occurred to me to try some ibuprofen (4 tablets) and it really reduced the pain. I kept taking them every 8 hours after that through Sunday. By Monday 2 days later I was having no pain at all and really recovered. I still have the scabs though. They are going away slowly.
Yikes, that would be awful. I’m glad your mostly better now. We’re you able to kill the nest?

I got stung by one of those. I think its the same thing. They are very small and fly around fast. You usually get stung before you know they are there. My sting hurt a lot for about 4 hours. Then it subsided only to return that night. I could not sleep well and ran a few degrees fever. It lasted overall about 24 hours. Very painful. I had a man come remove the nest because i didnt want anymore of those stings.
What about your noisy neigbours?
