An insect, which may cause allergy symptoms in sensitized individuals. P. dominulus, P. gallicus, P. biglumis and, to a lesser extent, P. ninphus are the most widely spread in Europe and are especially relevant in Mediterranean areas, while P. annularis, P. fuscatus, P. metricus, P. apachus and P. exclamans are present in the USA.
IgE-mediated reactions often present as large local manifestations, with swelling extending from the sting site, erythema, and pain. Reactions may remain local, or become regional, or become generalised, with anaphylactic symptoms such as urticaria, flushing and angioedema, as well as more serious respiratory and cardiovascular symptoms. The reactions can be fatal. Immediate and delayed reactions are seen, delayed ones being less common. Anaphylactic reactions to Hymenoptera stings are not dose-dependent or related to the number of stings. Most deaths related to Hymenoptera stings are the result of immediate hypersensitivity reactions that result in anaphylaxis.
