Suggest Remedies For Beetle Sting

Hello, I am trying to identify a bug that bit me four days ago. Ithad a noticeable bite, and I looked down toward the sting and there was a small(maybe 1/4 inch long) very narrow green and mostly white bug. It was possibly a beetle of some kind as you could see no wings but the rear end of the animal seemed so smooth it was likely it enclosed wings. The bit became almost as bad a s a spider bite. Very odd. Any clue?

Hello,

It may be due to sting bite.

For that you can take tablet loratidine.

Apply hydrocortisone ointment locally.

In case of breathing difficulties you may require urgent medical care

Hope I have answered your query..
