Horsefly bite...
I was walking Inca across the field yesterday when I felt a tingle on my arm. A Horsefly!
I managed to brush it off before it took hold properly but by the time we got home I had a small red lump.
I fell asleep on the sofa last night and awoke with such pain in that arm, but just thought it was where I had been lying on it funny.
But now this morning I have a swelling, about 3 inches across, and it aches!
I am quite allergic to bites/stings, and if I get one on a joint I'm in trouble. This one isn't but I'm off to double my anti-histamine.
Any other tips?
