I have had this years ago and I was told it was Imfetigo, I don t remember it being this bad and painful. What should I do? AAAA
Hello. Thanks for writing to us. The stiff muscles in the neck and back after the bite is likely to be due to muscle spasm due to the injury or cervical spondylosis. This is not related to superficial skin infection like impetigo. I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
