Today, I got a mosquito bite on my wrist. Maybe I'm paranoid, but I am pretty sure mosquito bites are not supposed to start crawling up to your armpit while swelling. FML

Wow, this is the first time one of my FMLs have been accepted! I googled whatever was happening on my arm, and I think 26 may or may not be right. According to the internet, if should go away in a few days, and it was a spider bite. But ever since I was a kid, I've always attracted some weird bug bites, but this has never happened to me before. Unfortunately, I am the type of person that will twist my wrist and still just say that I'm fine. Like that time where I threw up twice when I was 11 years old and still insisted that I was well enough to go to school, only to be sent back home when I threw up again. I applied some type of cream thing on the bite, and it has gotten better. It'll probably go away in a few days. Hopefully.

Stop writing on FML and go to the doctors! There's no harm in getting it checked out even if you think you might be being a little paranoid

You're either allergic or it wasn't a mosquito that bit you, and you're allergic to whatever it was. Definitely get it checked out

An allergic reaction can occur causing the feeling of it crawling up to your armpit. Take some allergy medication or go see a doctor. Not really an FML, not really a ydi....

That's just an urban legend. Doesn't work in real life unfortunately.

it's going to lay eggs inside you, soon enough you'll have hundreds of little mosquito babies to call your own :)

LOL. Mosquitoes don't lay eggs inside people ... but the human Bot Fly does. It is endemic to South and Central America. They lay an egg under the skin of a host and the larva grows there. They generally don't migrate but develop in one spot under the skin and crawl out when they become mature flies. ;)

Scarab beetles still exist, and they don't eat people alive. You've all seen The Mummy too much. They eat decaying flesh and shit.
