We're currently abroad and I've been bitten multiple times. Generally they flare up for a few days, itch like mad then go away. However I was bitten three days ago (I assume by a mosquito) and the bite is getting bigger and sorer. I've taken an antihistamine each day and the local pharmacy gave me hydrocortisone cream but it's not helped much. We drew around the red circle surrounding it last night and today the circle has spread outside the pen but changing colour in places from pink to purple- other parts of it are fading.
Does this sound part of the normal healing process?
We're travelling home late tonight so can visit the pharmacy etc when we get back but if anyone has any tips or suggestions I'd be grateful to hear them!
