How long it takes swelling to go down after a bee or wasp sting varies greatly from person to person, as well as from insect to insect. For example, wasp stings generally take longer than bee stings to subside in swelling. If you are allergic to one and not the other, though, it may take much longer.

If swelling remains after taking medication for more than 4 hours I would go to a clinic to confirm that there is no infection or minor allergy.
