First make sure the stinger is removed. If swelling occurs apply ice and take Benadryl. In the event of anaphylatic shock symptoms visible would be swelling of face,neck,tongue,fever and vomiting. Medical treatment advised promptly.

A sting by a wasp may cause allergic reactions and vomiting may be one of them. If the nauseating feeling and vomiting continues then the doctor should be consulted. This symptom should not be neglected as it may lead to other serious complications like weezing,abdominal colic or other respiratory problems so consult a doctor as soon as possible

Yes, he is probably suffering from an allergic reaction. His body is rejecting the toxins introduced into his body from the wasp's sting and he is vomiting to expel the poisons. Make sure that the stinger is not in the wound, it can be quite small and hard to see.

An allergic reaction would have happened immediately. However make sure the wound appears to be clean. It is probably safe to leave it but if in doubt - go.

Vomiting after being stung by wasp could be an indication of an allergic reaction. Most people are not allergic to wasp stings and suffer only short term pain from a sting. If there is a concern that he may be allergic, it is best to seek medical advice.

I would be thinking that a visit would be advised. This sounds like a possible delayed reaction to the posion of the wasp string. It would defintely be wise to be safe than sorry

A wasp sting is a kind of poison. Different people are affected by it differently. If he is vomiting he is strongly affected but you should be more concerned with breathing. If that is affected then go to the doctor.
