HOW TO TREAT A BEE STING AT HOME 🐝

1. Find the stinger
2. Remove it with tweezers, fingernails or cards
3. Wash area with clean warm water
4. Apply ice/cold compress
5. Then hydrocortisone cream/calamine lotion &
6. Take a pain reliever if painful

{Share to who needs this!}

If you don't remove the stinger, bee stings can cause massive swelling (edema) with severe itching (erythema) & sometimes bumps (plaques & bullae), due to allergic reaction.

But once the stinger is removed, the itching & swelling should disappear within days.

In most cases, unless you’re allergic to bee stings or experiencing signs of a severe allergic reaction, you can treat bee stings at home if you follow the above simple steps.

If the symptoms don't disappear after 2 days, see your specialist.

Ladies,
Make sure you pee immediately after sex.

Urinating can help flush out the bacteria that may have entered your urine pipe (urethra) during vaginal sex.

This can prevent you from getting urinary tract infections.

{RT for sexually active ladies on your TL}

Peeing immediately after having sex is particularly helpful for people prone to urinary tract infections (UTIs) such as women - due to their shorter urethra than that of men which is longer.

However, peeing after sex will not prevent pregnancy or sexually transmitted infections (STIs) because it is not a form contraception.

Having an orgasm at least 3 times a week cuts in half your risks of coronary heart disease. Sex is a form of exercise!

For people without heart disease, sex is a good form of exercise which helps strengthen the heart, lower the blood pressure, reduce stress, & improve sleep.

So for people with a stable heart, the long-term benefits of regular sex & other physical activities outweigh this risk.

But people with existing heart diseases may have a heart attack during sex or any other physical activity that increases thier heart rate.

For them, it's not advisable to have sex especially when you have symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, irregular heartbeat, etc
