Hi,
It seems that due to poisonous bite there might be having some infection giving rise to this problem.
Take antihistamine tablet like Cetrizine and go for one antibiotic medicine course to control infection after consulting your doctor.
After infection controls, pain will go down.
Ok and take care.
