What is the reaction after mosquito bite?

Freaky mosquito bite reaction?

• Last night I was at a bonfire and got a few mosquito bites on my foot. I normally react very harshly to mosquitos, like major swelling. Well these mosquito bites started out normal, a little swollen and itchy. I just tried getting out of bed and almost started to cry because my foot hurts so badly. It is very swollen and obviously really hurts. I took a Benadryl, but it isn't helping. It isn't very itchy or anything, just painful and swollen. What should I do? I have to work tomorrow and I work in retail, which causes me to be on my feet all day! Thanks

• Answer:

  IF it is not the normal swelling and it concerning you, go to the hospital. Get better and then go back to work rather than make it worse and miss more time.
