Suggest Treatment For Swelling Due To Bug Bite

I have a bug bite from being in a dense woods that is very swollen and red. If I scratch on it because of itching it gets redder and bigger. I have two total knee replacements; one was done only 6 months ago. Do I need prophalatic antibiotics in case of infection?
