Can A Lump Behind The Head Be An Allergic Reaction To Bee Sting?
Hi, on Monday I was stung by an africanized honey bee in the back of the head, right side. I developed a lump on the back of my head that lasted several days. On Saturday, today, I noticed a lump on the back of my neck, right side, under the skin about the size of a pea, behind the ear at the base of the hair line. Could this be an allergic reaction still to the bee sting?

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.
No, there can not be a late reaction.
This can be just a boil.
OR be a lymph node.
