A member asked:
I have a bug bite on my arm, a small bite at first, then a triangle redness appeared around it. any thoughts on what it could be?

Can't tell: Many bug bites give a similar reaction and thus there is no way to guess what that may be. If you live in tick-infested area, be sure that it is not from Lyme disease. See your doctor if you wish to find out.
