Concept :

Stings from bees are a frequent outdoor annoyance. Most of the time, bee stings are only uncomfortable, and home remedies will enough to reduce the discomfort. However, if you are allergic to bee stings or if you are bitten repeatedly, you could experience a more severe reaction that needs emergency care. There are various precautions you may take to prevent bee stings, as well as hornet and wasp stings, and learn how to cure them if you are stung.

Explanation:

  1. Priyanka wept because she appeared to have been stung by a bee and was red and swollen.
  2. Methanoic acid or formic acid was one of the chemicals found in bee stings (HCOOH).
  3. It is thought that toothpaste will pull up venom similarly to baking soda. It's also claimed that little kinds provide a calming, cold effect. Whatever the case, toothpaste is a cheap and simple home treatment to try. After 10 to 20 minutes, simply dab some on the affected area and wipe it away.
