Skeeter Syndrome?

As I’ve got older, I’ve been having worse reactions to mosquito bites. I don’t get the bad reaction for all bites, just some of them.

Is this Skeeter syndrome?

First pic is a few days ago and 2nd pic is today. Not itchy anymore but now looking like a bruise.

Yes, quite possibly. Do you have any autoimmune conditions?

No nothing, no other allergies either.

I have it but it was put down to autoimmune conditions.

I react like that too and think I have this condition too, have you taken an antihistamine?

Yes my mozzie bites end up like that with me. Has only started in the past few years. They can be very sore
