A member asked:
I have a bite on my arm and when i first got it, it was very small and now it's bigger than a quarter and very red. i don't know what bit me?

Bite: If the area is getting larger, I would recommend seeing a doctor as it may be infected and need antibiotics. Until able to see someone, I would keep it clean with soap and water and apply neosporin.
