Blister/bump has been on my arm for approx. 9 hrs. i was running errands and went to the gym. just 1 bite and blister. yes to warm and chkpx. i'm 25.

Bite?: Sounds like a bugbite. Since it's only been there 9 hours it's nothing to worry about. You can treat with hydrocortisone (if it itches) and/or a healing ointment like Neosporin or Vaseline (if it's open and raw).

Bites that look like small blisters, all over my 2 year old. They are on his chest, back, arms, but mainly from where the elastic from his underwear sits on his hips all the way to his thighs. He has started running a low grade fever. Right at 100.
