| You need to ask them about a staph infection, it has really been going around and will spread to different areas of her body if it isn't treated. That is what it really looks like and it is often mistaken for a spider bite until it spreads. |

| My friend got stung by a bee on her foot and it was unbelievably swollen, so maybe her skin reacted badly towards an insect bite.... but nonetheless, get it checked by the doc... I'm sure it's nothing serious. Something tells me its a mosquito bite though.... possibly one of the big mamas bit her, because my brother got bit by one and it swelled up to a huge circle like that.

Almost forgot, don´t but any creams on it, because it will just disappear for a day and come back bigger. When I had the ring worm I would apply some lotrisome and elecon and this would make it disapper for a day and the next day the ring got bigger and bigger. The doctor told me that I was feeding it and this is why it got bigger.

It looks like either a brown recluse bite or tick bite to me. Ticks are pretty bad here this year because we had a mild winter so I would lean towards a tick bite. The poster who said that a lot of doctors don't recognize Lyme Disease is right. You may want to find one who specializes in Lyme Disease and have them take a look at it. Maybe it is just an infected tick bite. How is it looking BTW? Better I hope.

| I agree, that is definitely not a ring worm. I still think it's from a big mama mosquito, and clearly her skin reacted poorly to it. |

| Hope to hear all is well. I thought spider bite. If it's a tick bite, antibiotics would knock it out if caught early. But my husband had to be on antibiotics for a spider bite. Waiting...? |
