a week ago I was stung by a bee on the arch of my foot, its now healing, but I have a silver dollar sized raised red itchy spot. Its an extreme itch, wakes me up. Why is this? I didnt seem to have an allergic reaction at time of sting, perhaps having a delayed reaction?
Hello. Thank you for asking at Chat Doctor. I went through your history and from your history I would first think of delayed local reaction to bee sting. I would suggest you cold compresses and antihistamines like cetirizine of levocetirizine. This will control itching. You can take analgesics if it is painful. However, if it grows in size, gets pus inside, causes you to have fever or any other systemic symptoms, I would suggest you to consult a physician. Hope this will be helpful to you. Wish you fast recovery and the best of the health. Regards.
