Is it normal for a bee sting to become swollen?

Asked by xgunther (449points) October 18th, 2007 from iPhone

so I was stung almost 3 days ago, and at the time, I applied hydrogen peroxide, put a band-aid, etc…

But now the area (palm, and a third way up my arm from hand to elbow LOL) is getting really swollen, red, itchy, and it hurts. Is this normal from a sting this old? Any suggestions?
