[|Human|] I just notice a small bruise on my 8 month old sons arm with a tiny red dot in the middle. The bruise or the dot are not swollen, are not hot to the touch, and do not seem to be bothering him in anyway. But I am worried. It does not appear to be a spider bite, but then again I have never seen a bite right after it happened only after it got bad. The red mark though is not an open wound, but more like a tiny red dot that appears, it does not look as though it is puss feeled or anything, just a bruised circle with a red dot. I am bit on the worrying because my daught seems to always get sick but lately since she has gotten older seems to be growing out of it, I only hope my son will not be the same way. I am just concerned as to what could have caused this bruise even if it is nothing.
[|AI|]  Welcome to the ChatDoctorI have gone through the question and understand your concerns. But don't worry. The lesions as described seems to be due to insect bite. If it's not bothering him, then there is nothing to be worried about. Many a time our body releases histamines in response to the insect bites including mosquitoes. This leaves to such type of reactions on skin. You may apply lactocalamine lotion on the lesion to make it heal faster. Trim the nails of your son to prevent undue abrasion due to itching. Give him antihistamines such as Spy Ben Chat Doctor. Hopefully this will help you. I would be happy to help you in any further questions. Take care
