This is a common sign of a severe allergic reaction to a Yellow Jacket sting. The victim may have trouble breathing due to swelling or tightening in the lungs.
Swelling in these areas can occur rapidly after a Yellow Jacket sting in allergic individuals. This is a severe allergic response, and immediate medical attention is critical.
Hives are a common symptom of many types of allergies, including a Yellow Jacket allergy. They are usually accompanied by severe itching and can appear anywhere on the body.
Rarely, a severe allergic reaction to a Yellow Jacket sting can cause a drop in blood pressure, leading to dizziness or even fainting. This is a medical emergency and requires immediate attention.
This can be a symptom of a systemic allergic reaction to a Yellow Jacket sting. The body is trying to eliminate the allergen, leading to nausea or vomiting.
In response to the allergic reaction, the heart may start beating rapidly, which can be detected by palpitations or a pulse that feels too rapid or irregular. This is a serious symptom that requires immediate medical attention.
Recognize your symptoms?

Understand Yellow Jacket Allergy Symptoms
Recognizing a Yellow Jacket allergy primarily involves understanding the symptoms that occur after a sting. Normal reactions include immediate pain, swelling, and redness at the sting site.
Identify Severe Allergic Reactions
However, if you have an allergy to Yellow Jacket stings, you may experience more severe symptoms. These include:
Narrow Down the Cause of Allergy
If you experience severe symptoms after a Yellow Jacket sting that are inconsistent with a normal sting reaction, it is likely you have a Yellow Jacket allergy. Also, if these symptoms occur only after being stung by a Yellow Jacket and not at any other time, it further implies an allergy to Yellow Jackets specifically. Always consult a healthcare provider or an allergist for an accurate diagnosis.

Yellow jackets often nest in the ground, so be cautious when doing any type of ground work. Disturbing a nest can cause the insects to become aggressive and sting. Avoid dark, undisturbed areas where yellow jackets may nest, such as in old logs, in attics, or under piles of leaves and grass clippings.
Yellow jackets are known to swarm around food and sweet drinks. If you are eating or drinking outside, especially in late summer or fall, be aware that yellow jackets may be attracted to your food. Keep all food and drinks covered when not in use, and clean up immediately after eating.
When you're in an area where yellow jackets could be present, wear long-sleeved shirts, pants, shoes and socks, and gloves. Not only will this help protect against stings, it will also make you less likely to unknowingly disturb a nest. Avoid wearing bright colors or floral prints, as these can attract yellow jackets.
If you have a yellow jacket nest in or near your home, consider hiring a professional pest control company to remove it. These professionals have the knowledge, experience, and equipment needed to safely remove yellow jacket nests. Doing it yourself can be dangerous and may lead to multiple stings.

Yellow Jackets do not grow in the typical sense as they are insects, not plants or fungi. However, they do reproduce and increase in population predominantly in the warmer months. The life cycle of a Yellow Jacket begins in the early spring when fertilized queens emerge from hibernation.
Spring and Early Summer
Late Summer and Fall
It’s worth noting that Yellow Jackets do not reproduce or grow in populations during the winter months as most of the colony dies off, leaving only the queen to hibernate and start a new colony in the next spring.

It’s a physician-prescribed, custom-compounded formula designed to target all your nasal symptoms at once — congestion, runny nose, post-nasal drip, sneezing, and more.

Formulated by doctors and pharmacologists and backed by clinical research, Quickie combines five powerful ingredients into one easy spray.

Typical prescription may include the following ingredients: Azelastine HCL 0.15%, Mometasone Furoate 0.05%, Oxymetazoline HCL 0.0125%, Ipratroprium 0.06%, Sodium Hyaluronate 0.04%.
Straight to the source. That’s Curex


Quickie is a compounded prescription medication, prepared by a licensed pharmacy. It is not reviewed or approved by the FDA. It is prepared based on your provider’s evaluation of your symptoms and needs. Individual results may vary.

Lauren S.
No longer having to go the doctor's office a few times a week for painful shots.
Tony P.
I have done allergy shots in the past but found it pretty inconvenient to go every week. I really like the ease as compared with physically going to the doctors office.

Robert S.
The treatment is much less expensive than a course of allergy shots at a doctor's office and eliminates numerous trips to the doctor's and all the waiting time.
Janie L.
My seasonal allergies were much less severe than years prior. Most importantly, the convenience of taking drops in my own home is unbeatable.

Most patients feel relief within 15 minutes. We have both short-term relief ingredients as well as longer-term relief to keep you feeling better, longer. Some say it’s like turning off their allergies.
Sneezing runny nose, nasal congestion, post-nasal drip, sinus pressure, itchy nose. Great for outdoor allergies, indoor dust, or when pollen spikes unexpectedly.
No, this formula uses a microdose of oxymetazoline, balanced with anti-inflammatory and moisturizing ingredients to reduce the risk of rebound congestion. Clinical studies over the last decade show that when oxymetazoline is combined with a corticosteroid, it can be used safely over the long term without causing rebound symptoms.
Quickie Spray combines up to five prescription-strength ingredients into a single, personalized formula — targeting multiple symptoms like congestion, post-nasal drip, and inflammation. OTC sprays typically address just one symptom and lack the synergy of a customized blend.
Some ingredients like azelastine may cause a slight taste, but many patients find it milder than traditional OTC sprays. Proper spray technique (head forward, not tilted back) helps minimize drip.We also offer an alternative formulation with olopatadine, which has a gentler taste profile and may be preferred by taste-sensitive patients.
Quickie is designed to replace most other allergy medications. But it is designed to compliment allergy immunotherapy for long-term relief. If you’re currently taking other antihistamines or nasal sprays, tell your Curex provider, so we can adjust your formula to avoid overlap or interactions.
No, Quickie is a personalized compounded prescription prepared by licensed U.S. pharmacies based on your doctor’s evaluation. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved as commercial products, but they are regulated under federal and state pharmacy laws.
Possible side effects include nasal dryness, mild irritation, or occasional nosebleeds. These are typically mild and manageable. Let your Curex provider know about any bothersome or serious effects, so we can fine-tune your prescription if needed.
Quickie is safe for daily use, especially during the first 3–6 months of allergy immunotherapy, when symptoms are still active. Your Curex provider may adjust your dose or frequency as your immune system builds tolerance.
Quickie is designed to be non-sedating, so you can use it before work, school, or exercise without feeling groggy or foggy. In rare cases where drowsiness is reported, let your Curex provider know—we can easily adjust the formula to better suit your needs.
Yes, Quickie Spray can be prescribed for children aged 6 and up, based on your provider’s clinical evaluation.
Follow the instructions from your Curex provider.Most patients are advised to use one spray per nostril, twice daily — morning and evening — for consistent relief.
