It could be a simple mosquito bite that got infected. Had something similar on my leg a few years back. Only antibiotics helped and had a small hole in there that healed completely only after two months.
Actually that happened to me twice and every time it happened at the same park near our city swimming pool. I avoid that park now. Second time was less bad as I immediately got antibiotics to counter it.
might be a bee sting and the sting is still stuck inside
I thought so at first too, and on Thursday evening used a pince to try to get out the sting but the only thing I pulled out was pretty soft and small and looked more like I just tore out some skin. It didn’t really improve at all afterwards. Now in the morning much better again but had this every morning. Will make this a day in bed to hope it improves so much it will not grow again once out of bed … Just shortly walking to the kitchen and back I can kinda feel it worsening slowly.
Hope tomorrow goes well for you ![]()
I assume you recovered from this? Did you ever find out what it was? ![]()
Recovered, the hike was pretty taxing, got my whole lower leg swollen and I could only do with painkillers.
Still don’t really know what caused it. I did finish both courses of antibiotics because I don’t know which of them helped.
My fitness took a huge hit however and I still miss 10% power on my bike vs before.
Just rl four days or so ago got bitten again by a bee (in my face while cycling, stupid bee didn’t avoid me and trapped itself in the helmet strap). Hardly even felt it but out of precautions took some anti histamine pills that I still had lying around once just to be safe. 36 hours later couldn’t even see where it bit me anymore.
