Poor Tristan...

Like the whole penny swallowing incident wasn't enough...

Tristan has a pretty bad allegy to mosquito bites, which we already knew. Well he got bite 4 times right around the same area on his leg and it got really nasty really quick. It swelled so bad his leg was completely deformed. I kept putting on the medicine that we got for him before but it wasn't doing anything.

Well yesterday morning we woke up and the swelling has evened out but it was turning purple and the red was spreading so I finally took him in(3-4 days after the bites) and found out along with the bad allergic reaction obviously he has cellulitis in his leg. The skin around the area is so hard and rough, it doesn't even feel like skin. So he is now on antibiotics also... poor guy:(

Hopefully it'll clear up soon, it already looks a bit better this morning.

Here are some pics of the progression. Its hard to tell from the pics the color of it. It looked like he got slapped in the leg the redness was sooooo bad!!! Its super dark but the flash in the pics takes the redness away. Also on the last pics with the outline drawn on it... that doctor actually did that to watch the spreading of the cellulitis...
