Suspected squirrel bite
Sir,
My younger son (1year and 8 months old) was itching his hand when we checked we saw that there is a little puncture/scratch like spot with a little swelling. We initially thought it as a mosquito bite/insect bite. Later after about 1 hour the swelling increaed. After about 3 days we checked that the swelling is not there but a pimple like structure on that site. We are not sure what exactly it is. We fear as he often goes to our balcony and sometimes squirrels come there. Can it be a squirrel bite? He has not started talking yet so he is unable to speak what is it. Is there any need of ARV here?

Consult a pediatrician physically
As such a bite will create a bite mark, not a bump.
