Best On-Bike Bee Sting Remedies?

[OakLeaf]

If you're sure it was a yellow jacket, the only way the stinger would be in your body is maybe if you swatted it while it was stinging you, and the stinger broke off. Only honeybees break their stingers off inside their victims. If it was a honeybee stinger, it would be large enough to see - looks sort of like a wood sliver.

Sounds like maybe the sting got a little bit infected, or possibly you're slightly allergic.

A plash from the water bottle helps. And scrape the stinger out if it is a bee sting.
