Pain alone or pain with swelling -- both of which dissipate -- is what happens to the person who is bitten by a flower bug. The minute pirate bug in question (Anthocoridae family of insects) possesses tissue-piercing, sap-sipping mouthparts which do not allow access to human blood or injection of saliva and venom but which may provoke swelling in addition to pain in susceptible individuals.
