hi,tingling ,feeling of creeping on the foot,numbness post weeks after bite can be only due nervous dysfunction.it may have caused by the bite.first try neurokind plus daily once along with gabapentin atleast for fifteen days.if no response consult a gp and get nerve conduction studies done.and treat accordingly.little purple spot on the ankle is only the bitten part which can be cured by flutibact ointment
