They are in the shape of the curled millipede. I threw hm out but my thigh hurts. i washed the area with soap and water. What else shoudl I do? thank you!
Hi, i would suggest you to use a mild steroid antibiotic preparation for topical use for 7 days and it would be fine, it could just be an allergic reaction to the insect. take care
