A member asked:
Toddler got what we think were ant bites, next day they formed blisters that turned into oozing, open sores, and her entire calf is swollen and tight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a doctor: If the calf is tight and painful when the child moves her ankle or toes, go to the emergency room. If it is associated with a fever, redness , pain, pale color to the toes or foot, or lethargy then go to the emergency room.
