Refrain from scratching the bite or sting area because this may cause the skin to break down and an infection to form. Intermittent cold packs or ice may reduce swelling. You may treat itching at the site of the bite with an over-the-counter antihistamine such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl) in cream or pill form
Scratching causes very superficial layer of the skin to cracking and when it starts healing the colour changes because of the damage to the normal healthy skin.
