What Causes Stinging Sensation Behind The Ears After An Insect Bite?
I was bit by a flying light brown winged insect a little over a hour ago. The bite was on the right side of my head a little above the ear lobe. I shampooed my hair, put neosporin cream and hydrocotizone cream and applied ice but it is still stinging. No fever or swelling or rash just stinging.

Hello,
In my opinion you can consider taking an antiallergic medication like Fexofenadine 120 mg once daily for 5 days,to ward off the allergic reactions due to the sting
