Re: MOSQUITOES

Oh oh Bonnie, better call & make an apointment for yourself. This could be a
cellulitis ie nasty infection. My mom in law had a reaction like that to a
sting & they gave her an IV antibiotic in the doctor's office before they
would let her leave. Sent her home with instructions to come back for
another dose if it wasn't better the next day. Nothing to fool around with
hoping it will get better.
