It was probably an insect that is called a "yellow jacket" (probably slang, I don't know it's real name). But I suggest seeing a doctor if the swelling doesn't go down. ]
If you're allergic to bees, you can die if you don't get treated. You could have goten stung by a wasp or hornet. ]
I think it'd probably be best to go to the doctor, but meanwhile, put ice on it to keep the swelling down, and keep it elevated (if youre laying down, stack some pillows under it). but yeah, just in case you should probably plan to go to the doctor..you don't want it to get infected! ]
gwt an ice pack,tell your mom about you'll have to go to the doctor
x0x0x good luck ]
It was probablly a wasp and you need to go to the doctor for that because if you are allergic to them you could end up going to the hospital. Make sure you keep ice on your foot and the swelling will go down a little. X0` ]
