    Question is it a bite??

    DD woke at 4am and said her arm was sore, i didnt even look as we are going through the 'i need a bandaid' phase, it wasnt until this arvo i noticed her elbow is red, swollen and hot to touch, i assume its a bite of some sort, but the hot part worries me a little, is that normal???

    Sometimes bites can be hot to touch. If it's getting any bigger or becoming more painful she should see a dr.
