Suggest Remedies For Bee Stung

I have symptoms of redness, hot to touch, started pain at first - I know that I was stung by some kind of bee. I have never been allergic to bee stings. I was stung by a bee 4 days ago. It hurt at first then changed to very itchy. I have been putting ice off an on for the last 2 days - the swelling goes down somewhat. I have tried a couple of different anti biotic treatments. They don t seem to help. Will this go away or do I have to see my Doctor?
