Is Bug Bite Infection Contagious?
My daughter is 5 years old. She had what looked like a bad bug bite on the back of her thigh and it has quickly turned into one giant hive on both hips and buttocks. She doesn't recall being bit by anything. I sprayed it with benadryl spray and she said it stung. What should I do next?

Hi,
It seems that she might be having some poisonous bite on the part giving rise severe allergic reaction on the part.
Give her antihistamine like CEtrizine or Benadryl for 2-3 days.
within a day or two allergic reaction will be alright.
Ok and take care.
