Infected bug bite?

Day before yesterday, a wasp dove through my open front door, determined to nose around in my living room. I went and got the fly swatter, but by the time I got back, he had disappeared. (All mean wasps are ‘male’, aren’t they?) I hoped that he had flown back out the door. Fast forward to 9pm. I rolled over to the kitchen sink and reached up with my left arm and hand to turn on the hot water faucet. There was a horrible stab,...worse than a pin prick...into my left throat. I swatted the (unseen) wasp away, furious at his assault. Actually, from his perspective, I had assaulted HIM. He was probably sitting on my left shoulder when I had reached up for the water faucet, so he “defended” himself by stinging me in the throat.

The only good news is that I had a small bottle of green black walnut hull tincture a few feet away. I grabbed it and took a small swig of it. The wasp venom seemed to loose its power. Five minutes later, another sip. Ten minutes later, a little more,...which was the last drop in the bottle. I babied my poor throat with a gently applied ice pack in bed last night. I am happy to report that there was very little swelling, and I can now touch the bump without undue pain. ...That’s Green Black Walnut Hull Tincture, folks.

BLACK WALNUT HULLS
Black Walnut Benefits & Uses
“...Pliny the Elder, the Roman naturalist, talked about their healing power in the first century A.D. Seventeenth-century herbalist Nicholas Culpeper prescribed walnut to draw poisonous venom from snake and spider bites. It was the Native Americans, however, who first used black walnut hulls as a laxative and as a treatment for eliminating parasites in the intestine...”


P.S. Oh no! I was wrong! The mean wasp was FEMALE!
“Only female bees and wasps can sting. Males do not have the egg-laying ovipositor that is modified into a stinger on female insects.”
