Mosquito Bite

I got a mosquito bite the other night and unlike any other one I’ve had, it is very swollen and hot. It is about 2X2 inches now and extremely itchy. I’m not allergic to anything and I’ve never had a reaction to a bite. I was thinking it might be infected but if anyone has any ideas, that would be great.

Answer #1

its probably just a bit of a worse reaction and nothing to worry about most bites swell up a bit when you scratch them and its normal for them to be ichy and for you to want to scarcth them I dont think it should be hot though it would be best to see a doctor/hospital though just in case especially if you notice any other symptoms because the worst thing mosquitoes can spread is malaria and that can be fatal

Answer #2
