It's hard to tell from the picture but its a bit red around the blisters too but that could be from me trying not to itch the actual area.

It is HIGHLY contagious so go see a doc asap! and don't let anyone touch it unless it's a doctor wearing cloves. #354, that is Ringworm.

After using cortisone alcohol and ice it is still itching and burning. It was red and swollen but now there is this tiny black spot but it still itches and burns. Is it too late to go to the doctor or should I just wait this out? I woke up about a week ago with several bites on my back and one under my rib cage.

I live in West Haven, CT and have been fighting bed bugs for over a year. I have 5 kids and need to know if this is a spider bite or the bed bug bites are getting uglier? Thank you for your help.

It has no scar just a tiny dot in the middle. It's on my upper thigh and like I said it's getting larger and larger. I tried cream and it will not work. And I refuse to go to the hospital. All I need to know is what it's called and what can I do/use to heal it. please I need to know as quickly as possible. Okay Thank-You.

Being late for work, I rushed out the door without any closer examination. The pain was a slight irritation that persisted for a couple hours while I was at work whenever my pants rubbed against the bites. When I had a minute, I checked them out again and noticed it wasn't exactly two bites, but an oval shaped blister about an inch, inch and a half long. By this time it had popped and I cleaned the pus from the bite. Two slightly smaller, slightly harder mounds still remain, and I am not sure if these are also pus blisters or perhaps hardened tissue. The bite is slightly irritated and remotely red, but not to any extreme extent. I've been keeping ice on the bite as a precautionary step, but I am not sure if it is serious enough to go to the doctor right away or wait and see how it develops within the next day. Through internet searches (which aren't helping my nerves at all) everything seems to point to a brown recluse spider bite. I live in south eastern Michigan where, as I understand, these spiders are not too common. Anybody have any similar circumstances?

I got bitten by something, a lot. I have approximately 21 bites. They are located on my back, neck, elbow, both legs, and both feet. Their is an abandoned house down the street with an in ground pool full of water, with obviously will attract Mosquitoes. I'm thinking I had an allergic reaction to the bites...? They itch insanely and sometimes my feet hurt/cramp up. Any suggestions as to what I have been bitten by? By the way, I live in the center of Indiana and I'm 13.
