Wedding ring bee sting

Last night there were a lot of bees at our campsite. They were not aggressive and as long as you let them lick you and didn’t try to swat them, they did not sting. Unfortunately Tonico and I both had bees land on our hands. We must have squished them by accident because we were both stung right by our wedding rings. I took mine off because I was worried my finger would swell. Tonico left his ring on and his finger swelled up like a ballon. After 18 hours it was still very swollen so we convinced him we should cut it off. Paul used hacksaw blade to cut the ring. Don’t worry Celine his finger is fine and he still loves you.
