Monday evening, a wasp stung Ben & FG.
FG's pinkie swelled up. But Ben had the worst reaction -- his whole hand was about double the size.
We called the Healthline and Nana and luckily we both remember a few home remedies. First I removed all their clothing to ensure there was no wasp inside and to look for any sign the rash was spreading. We put their hands in cold water and then in ice. I also gave them Benadryl and Advil. That seemed to get it under control.
Luckily we were at home. It could have been a lot worse. I'll be sure to add a few additional things to my car first aid kit.
