A member asked:
I've had a strange bite for three days and it has been excreting what i think is serous fluid ever since. i'm not scratching it. is that bad?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Edema (Swelling): An insect bit can cause a lot of swelling (edema) at the site for several days. This happens commonly in people who have more allergies and sensitive skin. I have seen a mosquito bite cause a severe red, swollen (3 inch wide) spot. That swelling can cause the serous fluid to leak through for a few days. However, if it is not getting better by day 5, see your doctor, it could be infected.
