Showed up last night. Its pretty swollen



Update: its an insect or spider bite. Its not abcessed, which is awesome. The dr. Said it does look a little infected and that its most likely a mid-range allergic reaction. Gave me some antihistimines and antibiotics and told me to come back if it doesnt start to clear up. Sorry for the typos, im mobile on dh's new phone and not used to it yet.

I got bit by spider and that's what it looked like. Put baking soda paste on it. If it gets worse go to the doctor. I had to my third time getting bit. They gave me meds.
