Well I must Be Tasty!!!

Typical!

I am just about to go on holiday and I end up with a leg the Elephant man would be proud of!

Whilst up the allotment I felt something nip my leg, though nothing much of it until I got home and now my leg looks like this;


Not only is it huge, but its red hot and itches like a crazy thing, even after antihistamines.

Lets hope it games down before Tuesday.

  2. Oh you poor thing!
    Looks like a horse fly bite: they are nasty wot-nots.
    Elevate your leg and drink lots of fluids this evening.
    Try popping cool flannels/cloths on your leg to bring down the temperature.

  5. Fostermummy has given wise advice- but if it stays bad, you should get it checked out. I had one like this and ended up with antibiotics too x

  11. That's so typical! I usually walk into something and sport a ginormous bruise if I'm due to live in a bikini for a few weeks! Hope it goes down soon. x
