Hi everyone hope you're all having a great weekend!
Just wanted to ask if anyones had problems with insect bites. On Thursday evening I got bit at the top of my left leg and my goodness it's made an awful mess.
It's continuing to get worse and wondered what I could do to ease it. It's suprisingly not itching but is really sore and I can feel my skin getting tighter with the inflammation. Also the heat which it's radiating is sooooo hot.
Can't take piriton or such like so hopefully you may have ideas for me to ease it slightly.
Also is this regular with CTDs? Bugs seem to love having a nibble and they have gone nasty before but not this bad! Should I mention it to Rheumy?
Many Thanks

I've tried attaching some photos so hopefully I've done it correctly!:hehe:
