Can Chigger Bites Cause Sore Throat And Chest Constrictions?
I woke up this morning with a very sore throat, now I still have it, but it feels like I have an area lower in my chest right about for breast bone that feels like it is constricted, or like I have something stuck in that area. I am also covered in chigger bits that are swollen, could this be some swelling from the chigger bites in my chest area?
