Question 35 • Sports Medicine 1a

Deanna has a severe allergy to bee stings. If she is not treated right away when she is stung by a bee, what is MOST likely to happen to Deanna?

Answer
A
She will experience hypothermia.
B
She will experience anaphylaxis.
C
She will experience heat stroke.
D
She will experience epinephrine.

Explanation

A severe allergy to bee stings can trigger anaphylaxis, a serious, rapidly developing allergic reaction that may affect breathing and blood pressure. Without prompt treatment, it can become life-threatening. Hypothermia and heat stroke are unrelated to an allergic reaction, and epinephrine is a treatment for anaphylaxis, not something she would experience.
