Bumble bee sting ( maybe 2 or 3 times) what should I do?

Bumble bee sting ( maybe 2 or 3 times) what should I do?

The area of the sting is still real red,and looks to be spreading. The area is tender and warm. I have never been allergic to bees. I thought the area would heal, but it has not and it has been over 30 hours. It started out swollen and red, the swelling looks to have gone down but the redness looks to have spread. I am not sure how many times the bumble bee actually stung me. the area is now the size of a softball or a little larger. Should I see a doctor.

You can get a local infection in a sting.  Go see a doctor if this is still present or is getting worse.

I recently learned in bumble bee stings are fatal and will cause death. Therefore, please be mindful if you are allegic-PLEASE!!! wear the alert bracelet to inform others about your medical conditions. Unfortunately, my cousin lost his life due to bee sting 48hrs ago.
