[|Human|] I was bitten on my second toe after my big toe by what appeared to be a bed bug very early yesterday morning. Today my toe is swollen and painful and throbbing, especially around the cuticle. Is there anything I can do to ease the swelling and pain? I have my fooy elevated now but even that hurts from the pressure.
