  • Title: [Insect stings and their sequelae].
    Author: Voigt R, Sandholzer H.
    Journal: MMW Fortschr Med; 2005 Jun 30; 147(26):38, 40-1. PubMed ID: 16035488.
    Abstract:
    In the summer months, insect stings are a common reason for seeking help from the general physician. In the majority of cases a local reaction is seen, but, far less often, an anaphylactic reaction may also occur. Such an acute situation requires calm but decisive action, and the initiation of an evaluation by an allergy specialist. The family doctor should regularly review the facilities for treating an anaphylactic reaction in his office, and, where necessary, optimize them.
