Hi,
Nothing to worry, there might be having local allergic reaction to mosquito bite
producing swelling on the part.
This swelling might remain for 1-2 days.
Take Cetrizine, Benadryl or Levo-cetrizine for 2-3 days.
If there is pain associated with swelling, you might require one antibiotic medicine course for 3 days.
Ok and take care.
