Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, my daughter is just over a year old we we were up north for a few days. I have bad reactions to all types of bug bites especially mosquito's. My daughter got bit by something on her arm and it turned into a rash. It was a rash for about two days then it turned into a bite that looks like a target.. I have had similar reactions with a target looking mark but I've never had anything as what she has on her arm. It has been about 6 days so about a week since she has gotten the bite. The swelling went down, it doesn't look like a target anymore it just looks like a big rash again. I have read it could have been a tick bite but there was no tick and no hard spot.. I'm not exactly sure what to do at this point, I don't want her to have to take a bunch of different antibiotics she doesn't need, I've seen many inexperienced doctors regarding bug bites and they have no idea what to do. I went through it. So I'm looking for every opinion I can get from people with experience with this type of situation. Please help.
