A week ago I noticed a mosquito nite on my foot, it s very red and not itchy at all. I just ignored it since I knew it will just fade away. after 3 days, I noticed it got bigger and became black. It now has watery blister and it s been a week and nothing has changed. what should I do?

Hello Welcome to HCM.this redness happens due to fighting between our body cells and mosquito secretions.If the reaction is more ,not able to completely supress, then swelling,collection of fluid occurs.Now to hastens recovery,the fluid should be drained by puncture using sterile instruments and apply local antibiotic cream.You will be surprised to see,it is fast healing.Take care.Good health
