Life Threatening Allergies You Need To Be Aware Of

Insect Allergies

It is completely possible for people to be allergic to insect venom, this is implanted in the skin any time an insect bites or stings. If you are trying to assist someone who is experiencing a severe allergic reaction to an insect, look for the stinger and determine if it is still implanted in the skin. If the stinger is still in the skin attempt to remove it by using a gentle brushing motion, do not attempt to pinch or squeeze the stinger for this could cause the stinger to release more venom.
