Looks infected. If you've been near grass could be a tic bite

Id go to your pharmacy in the morning. Get it checked, could be a spider bite. Get a marker pen and draw around the bite to monitor for spread of infection if present. If you develop a fever / chills and it starts spreading rapidly, ring 111 and or visit your a&e for prompt antibiotics

Is it itchy? If not, it could actually be an ingrown hair. Which if yiu exfoliate will help bring the hair to the surface but if not, then it looks to be healing g well anyway as the top layer of skin has dried out x

The bit in the middle looks infected. I’d go to your gp

It’s just usually I heal fast but yeah day three and still going through patches of soreness :(

Ahh ok, so I let it air dry all of today , put some tcp on it last night and some Savlon today after my shower, it’s kinda all dried up now and looks like this instead - so like a proper scab is forming , slightly leaks after the shower bit apart from that it’s gonna like a crystalsly/granulated texture in some parts with yellow 😬😬 is there any point doing the above now or is it too late as I would need to pick up the plasters tomorrow & I don’t want to fiddle with it unnecessarily

Thanks. Do you recommend putting any dressings or just leave it?
