I have a roomate?

Question:

my roomate got bit by this big and then a cpouple days later it got infected and strted to swell. the doctors gave her pills for the infection but it makes the area look black and blue. Is this worse then a normal bugbuite is she gonna be okay?

Answers:
Well does she know what bit her? So it is bruising affect? It wasn't a spider bite was it? I am just asking because I was wondering if it was a brown recluse spider bite? Please watch it is that is what it is. How many days has she be taking antibotics? If it is not getting better after 1 -2 days of anitbotics then she needs to go back to the doctor or if it is looking worse even after 1 day of anitbotics she needs to go back to the MD.

oh dear

shes going to die

peace be upon her

it sounds bruised, but go back to surrgery so the doc can see it again.

well if the doctor isn't worried she shouldn't worry, and if its been a few days and hasn't escalated any then it should be fine, just have her keep taking the pills, and pay the doctor a visit every now and then until the bite is gone

Wow, Callie. A lot of people that you know and love seem to be getting infected quite a bit. However, I suppose this situation can be plausible and should treat you like any other YouQA.com questioner.

If the pills are making the bugbite worse, I would suggets your roomate to stop taking them and consult the same doctor that gave her the pills. Normal everyday bugbites usually are just itchy and may create a small little bumb above your skin, much like a mosquito. Perhaps you should try special bug cream or something of the sort.

You are not really going to get any safe medical information with a superficial misspelled description of somebody Else's problem. If your friend is concerned she should recontact her GP direct.
