The pain should subside quickly, but the redness and swelling will be there for some time. Swelling duration is about a day for normal person with no allergic response to bee stings. Antihistamines, corticosteroid cream or calamine lotion should be applied on the site of the sting to reduce inflammation.
Place an ice pack, wet compress, or ice wrapped in a cloth on the site of the sting for 10 minutes, then off for 10 minutes. Take an antihistamine or apply a cream that reduces itching (such as Calamine or Benadryl ointment) if the bite itches. You can also use a paste made of 3 parts baking soda to 1 part water.
