Having Noticed A Bite On Thumb Which Is Causing Numbness & Low Grade Fever,headache & Soreness
I have a bite on my thumb that looks like a mosquito bite. My inside of my thumb (where the bite is) has been completely numb for > 24 hours. Today I started running a low grade fever, have had a headache, and been very tired and sore. Can this be West Nile Virus?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern as you said that this is mosquito bite but as you described the symptoms from this I could say that this is not the mosquito bite because after the mosquito bite the area does not get numb your symptom of malaise and bite are nothing to take with each other, hope this information helps you, take care and have nice day,
