Are they infected Danny, or do they always go like that? Looks sore.

Oh it burns like a buggar when you first get stung
 Not itchy and not to bad unless I touch them  They usually make little pustules (like zits  ) but I got stung enough to have some fill with fluid. Doesn't help that I am allergic to the stings. Got a few more on my legs so probably over 2 dozen in all.Danny

Who'd have thought something so tiny could hurt so much  hope they're better soon. Karen
