No, it does not. The mosquito doesn't inject a toxin. Instead, they simply try to injest your blood as a nutrient. The problems come in when the transfer goes both ways. The bump is your body reacting, not to a toxin, but to something it feels shouldn't be there (antigens). Scratching a mosquito bite doesn't release toxins into your bloodstream, but it does aggravate an already irritated area and, if you open a wound there, you can easily get an infection started. So don't scratch :}
