Suggest Treatment For Arm Swelling
I was stung Saturday around noon and got the stinger out. Woke up Sunday early am and my arm itched really bad. Got several hour later and my arm was swelling. I have what looks like blisters now and they are leaking a clear fluid like a sunburn blister does. Any suggestions.

HI
Well come to HCM
As you stated here this was the stung then this could be venomous and this need to be ruled, else condition can be managed with following medicines.
1) Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg three times in day
2) Tab Amoxicillin 500 mg three time in day
Povidone iodine ointment for local application
do not cover the would keep this open, if condition does not improved then clinical examination would be necessary, take care, have a nice day.
