What Does Redness And Numbness Around The Bruise Caused By Blister Indicate?
I received a bug bite on my leg last night. The middle has turned into a blister with a purple and white bruise around it. There is a 2 inch red circle around the bruise. The whole thing is swollen and slightly painful with occasional numbness. Should I be concerned?

Hello,
Thanks for the query,
You have developed an allergic reaction to irritant present in insect bite,
Apply a mild steroid lotion like desonide,
Also take an antihistamine tablet.
This will give you some relief.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
