Almost all insect bites or stings leave welts, if they have the horsepower to break the skin. If it's not a chemical blend they inject to make feeding easier, their saliva can also cause a localised allergic reaction. The bite should be expected to increase for a few hours, and then decrease in size and effect in 1-2 days, although some stay longer. Unless the bite expands, changes color, or you experience rashes or shortness of breath (allergic effects), you're pretty safe. However, any allergic reactions -- and especially difficulty in breathing -- mean it's time to call for help.

What insect leaves a two point bite mark?

The insect that typically leaves a two-point bite mark is the mosquito. When a mosquito bites, it uses its needle-like mouthpart to pierce the skin, resulting in two distinct puncture wounds. These marks can often become itchy and inflamed as the body's immune response reacts to the mosquito's saliva. Other insects like certain types of fleas may also leave similar bite patterns.
