Bite on child's leg hot to touch. does this mean it will turn into fever?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bite: It could. However, a lesion on the leg that is hot to touch, regardless of the cause, needs to be examined by a doctor. It could be infected and require antibiotic, especially if the lesion is tender and getting larger.
