Suggest Remedy For Insect Bite

i was biten i n morroco by an insect that i sat on my mistake. it had a burning sting like you get when you get an inocculation injection put in to the muscle. It stung for 24 hrs. Then remained raised for about 3 days. it has 3 puncture marks which have now gone brown/black. Did not take a picture of the insect unfortunately but was told it was about 1inch in length and black. There were at the time in the room a couple of large wasps or bees but they were not black. this happened 4 weeks ago
