Summer Sting Safety Tip

Lots of yellow jackets and black bald-faced hornet wasps are already around this summer. That means more people are getting stung. Not all stings will result in an allergic reaction.  Not all allergic reactions will progress to serious anaphylaxis. Localized swelling can be dealt with by ice and an anti-histamine.  

Epi-pens can be life-saving for persons with known serious reactions to wasp stings and those persons will have a prescription for the drug.  Epinephrine can also be life-threatening for persons with certain medical conditions, which is why a doctor must prescribe the drug. Epi pens must be in-date and stored under a certain temperature to be effective.

To avoid wasp stings on the tongue and face, which seems to be the most popular location this summer, don't drink out of a can.  Pour your drink or your children's drinks into a glass first. Then you can see before you sip.
