Suggest Treatment For Redness And Swelling In The Foot

So I d like to know what bit me on my foot last night, this morning I woke up with a pretty large bump on my foot that also appeared to have some redness around it. It goes from being really itchy to not itchy at all I d just like to know if I should seek medical attention or if it will go away on its own. Thanks!

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if this is suspected insect bite then Calamine can be tried for local application but condition need to be kept under observation for infection and other changes and if found something like that then you will have to see the doctor hope this information helps.
