As someone who has been stung dozens of times by probably at least a half dozen wasps and a few bees... The sting is incredibly variable.

I was doing some yardwork with my daughter and this nest must have been in a shrubby area we were tossing clippings into and one stung my hand and I saw one land on her ear and instantly grabbed her and ran. That was the worst sting I ever had felt and those buggers were small. Now my daughter is terrified of any pollinator.

I spent like 30 minutes icing my sting and she spent like 2 hours screaming with an inflammed ear as I attempted to help her ice it.

I am curious of there are different toxin types and different allergies... Like would those little buggers bring the same pain to everyone.
