Reduced pulses in feet can signal heart disease risks. Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a buildup of cholesterol and plaque in the arteries that lead to the extremities. PAD can cause discomfort in your legs and feet, limit your walking and activities, or severe PAD can progress to loss of limb. Your doctor can check for signs of the disease with a simple test of pulses in your feet.
Do you put vinegar or baking soda on a wasp sting? Both baking soda and vinegar can provide relief from the sting of a wasp or a bee, but baking soda is the more common remedy. A thick paste of baking soda and water applied directly to the sting can neutralize the soreness and reduce itchiness.
Both bees and wasps inject their venom with a stinger attached to their bodies. Wasps and most bees can pump the venom into your skin, remove the stinger and then fly away. The honeybee's stinger, however, is barbed and it sticks in your flesh. When the honeybee tries to fly away, her stinger won't budge.
