Bicarbonate of soda helps to neutralize the venom in the bee sting, which is acidic, providing relief from the pain and itching associated with the sting. The alkaline pH of bicarbonate of soda can counteract the acidity of the venom, helping to reduce inflammation and discomfort at the sting site.
To cure a bee or wasp sting, first remove the stinger by scraping it out with a blunt object. Clean the area with soap and water, then apply a cold compress to reduce swelling. You can also take an over-the-counter antihistamine or apply calamine lotion to help with itching.
