Answer» When bee stings a person ,it injects an acidic liquid into the SKIN which causes pain and irritation.if the bee stings a person,then RUBBING a mild base LIKE baking soda solution on the stung area of the skin GIVES relief. This is because being a base baking soda neutralises the acidic liquid injected by bee sting and cancels its effect.
