Went to my scheduled checkup for my bite. It was at a outpatient wound care at the hospital. They didn't like the redness and pain around the bite. So they took the packing out and lanced it. Blood and puss came out. Not a lot but they decided the hole in my foot and started healing. The infection got trapped below the healing. So back on the antibiotics and Rose to continue to pack the bite twice a day. The hole is about 1/2" deep a 1/4" wide.
Dang....you can't really catch a break can you?

Well this isn't too bad. I figure it only sets me back a few days.
Sunday I will be taking 14 of the family to a Detroit Tigers game. We got seating for all of us to be together. I have never been to the Tigers new stadium. It opened up in April 2000. So not so new anymore. 1st baseline, 1st level and past 1st base going into right field. Is where we are sitting. Prime foul ball area when a right handed batter is up to the plate. Should be fun!

Here is a picture of my wound. The red around the wound, covered the whole top of my foot at its worst. That redness is starting to get angry again. Hopefully starting antibiotics again, will calm it down.

Does it itch? I had a spider bite about 50 years ago and the hole looked like yours. It was on my shin about halfway between the ankle and knee. I could almost stick my little finger in it. It never got infected but took forever for it to heal up. I'm dealing with a bite right now on my belly that itches big time. But Benadryl cream helps with that. The recent bite has a large area of itching but the redness around the actual bite doesn't spread out to far. Hope you are feeling better real soon and enjoy the ballgame.
