How Can An Insect Bite On The Wrist Be Treated?
something bit me (Spider, wasp or bee) and my wrist is in pain like a bad migraine throbbing I took aspirin and 2 Tylenol, but no relief. the only thing that helps is to soak in ice water temporarily.This happened at 3 pm and the pain is the same with a feeling of numbness in the area no visible bite marks!

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The presentation of narrated symptoms suggest that there is possible cellulitis at the site of insect bite. I would recommend a shot of antibiotic with steroid from your PCP for faster recovery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel
