Suggest Remedies For Swelling And Soreness On The Scapula After A Sting

I'm 28, male, 5'8", 165lbs. I was stung on the right scapula about 20 min before a very intense workout. The following day my biceps and forearms were severely swollen. I thought it was from the workout and forgot about the sting. Its now been 4 days, some swelling has gone down and nearly all muscle soreness has gone. But I'm still quite swollen. There is no discoloration and no noticeable tenderness or pain. Should I ride this out or see a physician?
