It looked like a masqito bite at first then it got bigger then an hour later a big yellow bubble and itches its on her ankle

Bite: It looks more like a spider bite, a topical steroid should help the swelling but if it gets too swollen, she needs to see a doctor.

Bites: You can see a podiatrist who may drain it and culture to see if infected.
