Answer 1

It might be a spider bite, go to the doctor because it might get worse, at least the Dr. might be able to prescribe a antibiotic cream or something.

Answer 2

i have gotten these before. it is most likely a mosquito bite that you are having an allergic reaction to. it will go away if you don't itch it (its a little late for that now). because you itched it, it will take longer to go away but to help it along you can take an antihistamine (Benadryl, Zyrtec, claritin). if it keeps getting worse you can go to the doctor and they can give you steroids to help reduce the swelling. for the pain and itching, put ice on the bite for about 20 mins every hour or so, this will also help to reduce the swelling. put something in between the ice and your skin (ex:paper towel).

Answer 3

ewww, looks like lots of puss! : (>

may be a bed bug bite. I always get bites like that in my arms and legs when I wake up

Answer 4

It is very likely a mosquito bite or a spider bite.  I suspect a mosquito, as spider bites normally hurt immediately. You are extremely allergic to this particular kind of mosquito.  Even if you have had mosquito bites in the past with no problem, you might encounter a new breed that you have an allergy to.

The first thing to do is stop scratching.  Wash the area with liquid soap with antibacterial properties, like dial antibacterial.  Apply ice for 10-15 min to relieve the swelling.  The put neosporin on the bite.  If the area is hot and red around the bite tomorrow, or is spreading worse than now, call a doctor as you most likely have an infection and will need an oral antibiotic.  

Answer 5

it looks like you have scratched the area into irritation and that's why it seems so big?

try an anti-itch cream for bug bites, and leave it alone, and in about two days, see if there's an improvement, and if not, try talking to a doctor just to see what he has to say.

My youngest daughter gets reactions like that to bug bites. I put the topical benadryl cream on there. That seems to help her. Sorry not sure what kinda bug though.
