Suggest Treatment For Itchy, Dark Bruises On Skin Due To Possible Wasp Sting

Can the site where a wasp stings you look like it is bruised in the same area as the swelling and redness site? My daughter was stung 3 days ago on her upper thigh. We treated the sting with a ice pack, ib profen, an allergy pill. She has more itching today it doesn t appear so swollen but looks like it is getting darker like a bruise. Is this normal and how should we treat?
