Submitted by LDeLeo on April 21, 2010 - 12:09amand he stung him in the mouth. What do I do now??!!!!
More articles we recommend:
You can watch him while he sleeps, too.
If his tongue swells, his breathing will become labored, he'll be panting and hopefully you won't be seeing discoloration (bluish) in his tongue...that signals reduction of oxygen and he needs injections of steroids to reduce swelling immediately. The Benadryl may take an hour to begin to get thru his system, but if he's resting comfortably now I'd say you passed the first hurdle.

Thanks Elaine
I just gave him he benedryl, he's only 43- 45. lbs. We went right back to sleep, how fast does this happen?

Give him two Benadryl tablets right now...and watch him.
if his breathing becomes labored at all...or his tongue begins to swell, he needs the ER STAT !!!
