Is this an infection on my leg? Is it dangerous?!
Question: Is this an infection on my leg!? Is it dangerous!?
About a week and a half ago I got what I assumed was a bug bite just above my ankle!. Since that time it has morphed into what resembled a boil (when rubbed it produced pus, though later when I tried to lance it it just produced blood), and then to what it is now - a sore in the middle of a dark red area about the size of two half dollars, rock hard and warm to the touch!. I'm thinking about calling my Dr!. tomorrow and asking for a prescription for antibiotics; I just want to make sure it doesn't sound like anything more pressing than that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

MRSA lives in the nose!. Don't put your fingers up your nose!.
Don't touch your wound without washing-bleaching your hands!.
Don't put your fingers in your mouth!.

It could be erysipelas!. This is a subcutaneous infection with Streptococci!. This can potentially be serious and you should see a doctor for intravenous antibiotics treatment!.
Another thing: What kind of bug has bitten you!? When it was a tick you should be concerned about erythema migrans and Lyme disease!.
Either way you should see a doctor right away, because you could be in a potentially serious situation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
