hornet sting
Painful insect attack
A hornet sting is the wound or injury caused when a hornet injects venom through its stinger.
Hornet stings are notably painful and can cause significant swelling, more so than bee or wasp stings.
Unlike bees, hornets can sting repeatedly.
For most people the pain is temporary, but those with allergies may experience severe reactions: She went into anaphylaxis from a hornet sting.
