P. Exitialis sting report

Just got stung by my Pandinurus Exitialis and thought it might be interesting to share. For reference, I am a 20 y/o guy who lives a somewhat active lifestyle.

I have always been a bit curios of how a sting from a non-dangerous scorpion or a bite from a non-dangerous spider would feel, and know I know one of them.

It was entierly my own fault that this happened and the scorpion only did this as a last resort.

Now onto how I'm feeling. I'm writing this around 15-20 min after the sting. And the pain is worse than I thought it would be to be honest. I would compare the pain to getting your fingers slammed (?) in a door, more so than the common bee sting description. Other than the localized redness and increased sensitivity on my finger, I'm not feeling much of a difference. My lips are also tingeling a little bit.

Thanks for reading! :)
