Dial A Vet · Accepted Answer

A bee sting can cause a localized reaction, but swelling of the face, especially around the muzzle or eyes, could indicate a more generalized allergic reaction. While some reactions are mild, severe ones can lead to difficulty breathing due to swelling in the throat. You can try applying a cold compress to the swollen area. Watch carefully for any signs of breathing difficulty, excessive drooling, vomiting, or weakness. If these symptoms develop or worsen, seek immediate veterinary attention. Speak to Dial A Vet via a video consult should you need further guidance for mild cases.
