So, remember the other day when I tweeted about having the worst headache ever? Also, possibly the second migraine I’ve ever had in my life. Well, I woke up with redness in the form of a triangle with the point at the end of my left out and going out to cover my left temple. It doesn’t really itch, but it does slightly burn a bit. It’s also slightly raised and a teeny bit bumpy. Definitely not the normal texture of my skin.
So, if there are any dermatologists, nurses, RN’s, bug experts, etc out there reading this: Am I going to die? We’re going on the completion of Day 2 of said redness.
This image is making the corner of my eye look purple, it’s not.
So ummm, yeah. What’s wrong with me!?

Oh man, I was REALLY hoping someone had an answer for you because I am totally guilty of using the internet to diagnose things.
I don’t think you’re dying but if it doesn’t go away pretty soon I think I’d schedule a doctor visit. You probably won’t have to GO, because as soon as you call it will immediately go away, but just to be safe.
Ouch. It could be nothing, just a minor allergic reaction to a bug bite or something else… of course it could be serious too, but I’m no doctor so I have no idea.
If it happened to me I probably wouldn’t start to worry until the 4th day or so. Some Cortizone cream may help heal the area… I’ve used that on similar incidents before and it worked.
