I was prescribed 7 days of anti-biotics but I probably should have had it extended for a few days as the pain hadn't gone away and the skin was still yellow. Its all good now, fortunately permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] MML@sh.itjust.works 1 point 1 day ago (1 child) I'm confused as to why you don't think you had an infectious disease based on that. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] 666dollarfootlong@lemmy.world 0 points 1 day ago No, I knew then later that I had an infection. That appeared maybe 3 hours after the bite.
