A member asked:
I had a flea bite on my arm i look today and the bite is still there but its like a redish purpleish mark with a little bump, what's the purple mark ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Flea bit: The purple mark is most likely a small drop of blood that came out after the bite. The blood clotted and will be turning into a crust soon. I would not worry about that.
