Has bitten both my feet. I found the Benadryl and applied it lavishly, but AIBU to be petrified that I'm going to wake up tomorrow with raging cellulitis again? I don't have any oral antihistamine in the house Angry.

Was it a tiger? If yes, go to A&E. If no... don't know, sorry.

Hopefully the benadryl will do the trick. Do you have anything like a really harsh toner that will sting like a bastard when you put it on? That's what I'd do.

Shut all the windows, wear longsleeve pj's and socks. You will probably sweat to death but atleast you wont have a nasty leg.

Seriously, I have been bitten to pieces and I dont have an allergy, so you have my sympathy.

I don't have any official allergies to bug bites, but have had cellulitis twice after being bitten Sad. I am just watching my feet to see if either one is going to flare and burn....
