Is this an Infected bug bite?!


Question: Is this an Infected bug bite!?
On my neck just under the jaw line I have what I am assuming is a bug bite!. I've had it for 2 weeks now and it is not getting any smaller!. It has recently turned red and hurts when touched!. Infected!? I've been on antibiotics for something else since a couple of days after I first noticed it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Answers:
Redness and tenderness are signs of infection, yes!. Put an antibacterial ointment on it and watch it for the next day or two!. If after two days it is worse (oozing, red lines extending away from it, swelling, pain) OR if it isn't any better, go to the doctor!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
