[|Human|] I got stung by a bee on the weekend and because of my excessive scratching, I developed a skin rash/infection.  I am on 2 antibiotics:   bactrim DS, and keflex. Its only been 1 day taking the meds and the area is still extremely itchy.  I have not scratched it, just a tap here and there. There is now a swollen ring around the area.  The area is all red and remains red.  Im worried about the ring of small bumps around the area.  Is this a part of healing?  Or is this a new development?
[|AI|]  Hello, Thank you for posting on Chat Doctor. Insect bites are usually pretty easy to treat unless secondary infection sets in. I would suggest you consult a dermatologist, who would suggest you short course of oral antibiotics and analgesics. Oral corticosteroids may be added as required. Apply a cream containing mupirocin for 3 days followed by a cream containing clobetasol and juridic acid twice a day over affected areas for at least 5 days. Take antihistamines for itching as required. Hope your queries are resolved and wish you best of health. Kindly spare some time to rate my answer and Chat Doctor. Com/v3/__http://doctor.
