This sucks 😭 Mosquito bite

Growing up I never had this issue at all. Why is this happening now? 😭 hurts a lot.

This looks like skeeter syndrome which is basically an allergic reaction to the mosquito’s saliva. Get a cold compress on that and all the cortisone. I’ve had this happen. It should go away eventually but of course, if it gets worse, hit up an urgent care.

Oh good to know, I swear that has happened to me in the past.
