Healing normal - bug bite?
I have a scab that’s healing, I’m assuming it was a bug bite or something... it’s itchy even now still (assuming from healing and scab) I just want to know if it’s healing correctly - it kinda has like a red circle around it that’s raised... I thought it was from me scratching it.

Hello dear patient sometimes the insect can cause cellulitis that can create a problem. Because the infection will spread in skin tissue below and it may spread in body. If your bite mark is having redness, warn to touch and painful then it can be cellulitis. In that case medicines are required. If you have any doubts then follow up with me in consultation, I can prescribe you medication also.
