What do you do when a wasp bites you?

I have not been bitten by a wasp since I was a child going to school. I can't remember what I did. I knew it was very swollen.
Should one attempt to take out the sting??? That is right at the entrance where you were stung???

Yes, take out the stinger if you can. Then make a paste of meat tenderizer and a drop or two of water and put on the spot for as long as you can. This is what the doctor told me when I was stung by 4 yellow jackets.

Swear very loudly, then ice it........... pay a visit to the Hospital if you experience any symptons other than it hurts like hell.
