This may surprise you, but honey bees can fly into a car when the windows are down. And if they land on you, that can be very painful. I am talking from experience. :( The best thing that will give you relief is to soak your hand, or whatever in Epsom salt. This may hurt, but the swelling will go way down. And it will feel better. The worst thing you can do, when trying to avoid a sting, is to swat at the bee, this makes them VERY mad. Just wait for them to go away. If you get a honey bee sting the first few minutes are always worst. How it feels: A honey bee sting feels like pins and needles, except, 100 times worst! -PinkierGirl
