Got this from a forward mail, just thought of no harm for trying out this home remedy for a bee sting by using 1 cent coin, so decided to share with you guys.
That night my niece got stung by two bees. I looked at the bite and it had already started to swell. So, I went to get my money and taped a 1 cent coin to her arm for 15 minutes. The next morning, there was no sign of a bite. We were very surprised but figured perhaps she just wasn't allergic to the sting.
This is from Singapore, just don't know how true is it for the bee sting cure by using 1 cent coin but just keeping 1 cent coin in our pocket doesn't effect us much right?
"A couple of weeks ago, I was unfortunate to get stung by both a bee and hornet while working in the garden. My arm swelled so off to the doctor I went. The clinic gave me cream and an antihistamine.
The next day the swelling got progressively worse, so I went to my regular doctor I went, infected arm needed an antibiotic. The interesting thing is what the doctor told me that, next time you get stung put a 1 cent coin on the bite for 15 minutes.

Then guess what? I got stung again by a hornet twice on my left hand another day. I was distressed thinking I would have to go to the doctor for yet more antibiotics. I promptly went into the house, got my money out and taped two 1 cent coins to my bites, then sat and sulked for 15 minutes. The coins took the string out of the bite immediately. I still wasn't sure what was going on. I could only see a micro spot where I had been stung, no redness, no swelling. I would never have believed it. But it definitely worked! So, remember this little bit of wisdom, keep a stock of 1 cent coins on hand at school or at home!"
End of the story. Yet, I wonder are our Malaysia's 1 cent work as Singapore's 1 cent as told in the story? So, what's you guys think?
