A member asked:
Got bug bite on palmar side of wrist. it's now slightly red up to 3 in below bite with faint red streak heading down arm toward elbow. what is it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May be infected: Red streaking heading toward your elbow would suggest that germs have entered through the bite and are moving within that streak/tissue. I would see your doc at today or go to urgent care & have it evaluated.
