Bite with...: 34 y/o says, Looks like a bite mark only one hole on side of leg, very red and swollen redness is spreading andj also had terrible headache... headache is better now? This is most likely a bite of some sort; possibly insect bite with Stinger still in place. Take OTC Benadryl right away and go see the PCP or ER physician to examine, and treat appropriately.
