Hi

You are suffering from allergic reaction due to insect bite.Antihistamines and steroids are the drug of choice.Injectable forms are available for both drugs which can be used.Incase of throat pain,difficulty in swallowing or breathing, immediately contact your physician since it could be a severe and fatal anaphylactic reaction.

Hope that was helpful.Let me know if i can assist you further.
