Insect Bites
If the child has difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing,
hives, or other worrisome symptoms within 30 minutes after an
insect bite (especially bees) or had a previous severe
allergic reaction, see Severe Allergic Reaction.
A bite involves biting with the insect's mouth parts and
removing a drop of blood from a person. A sting involves
injecting a poison into a person from the insect's stinger.
