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.
WebMD suggests putting a paste of baking soda and water directly on the sting site. An ice pack can also be applied to relieve pain and swelling. If the site is itchy, calamine lotion may be helpful.
