If you have been stung by a bee, you would see the barb (stinger) protruding from your skin and you should remove it as soon as possible to prevent any more venom from entering your body. You would also see a swelling in the region of the sting. However, if you have been stung by a wasp, the barb will have been withdrawn by the wasp and you will only see the swelling and a small pinprick hole.

If a situation arises where you are about to get stung by a bee would it be better to be scared or calm and why?
Bees will only sting if they feel threatened. If you keep calm when a bee comes near you are far less likely to be stung. If you keep still when a bee lands on you it will normally just fly away again.If you try to make the bee go away by swatting at it you may well provoke a stinging attack because the bee will see that as threatening.The only other time a bee may sting is if it gets caught in clothing or in your hair. Then it may sting out of panic when it can't get away.

Am I still allergic to bees... When i was 4 i was stung by a bee and went to to immediate Anaphylactic shock. What is the likelihood I am still allergic to bees at age 26?
It is difficult to give a categorical answer to this. With certain food allergies, such as egg, there are recorded cases of responses improving with age, but this is not universal. I can find no direct information with respect to hypersensitivity to bee venom so I would suggest you err on the side of safety. If you are in a situation where you could be stung by bees, I suggest if you have not got one already, see your medical practitioner and ask for an epipen for use if you are stung. Use of this at the onset of symptoms would alleviate the worst effects.

How do you know if you got stung by a bee or wasp?
If it's a bee, the stinger is barbed and thus will usually remain in the victim, so you'll rarely see more than one sting per bee. Wasp stings are generally less powerful, and the stingers are smooth, so they can retract without losing the stinger. Thus multiple stings are possible.
What happens when a person gets stung by a bee?
If it did happen, however, there would probably be extreme swelling, and probably a stinger or two stuck in you. No matter what, there would be a lot of pain, but nothing fatal. You should go see a doctor to make sure you are okay. If you got stung by, say, fifty or sixty bees in your body (not just one specific area) your immune system would be overwhelmed and you would die. Both of these predictions are made without the person being allergic, and if he/she is allergic it would be in their best interest to high-tail themselves all the way to the emergency room.
Can rabbits die from a bee sting?
Yes, especially if they are attacked by a lot of bees at once, or if the person is allergic to bee stings. Yes, because if a bee stings you they will die but you get trapped with there poison in your body, so watch out! And as they say if you get attacked with millions of bees you will die (of course), but it will be incredibly painful! Don't make a bee angry.
