Just got back from a week in Spain and I've got what looks like small bite on the inside of my wrist.
There's a small, perfectly round scab of approx 1mm surrounded by a red circle, again perfectly round but about 2cms.
No itching and no pain - just curious.

No idea, sorry, Avril. Hope it causes you no bother and that you otherwise had a great time ♥
Best be safe and get it checked out x
Very likedly nothing to do with Spain just a tiny pin prick injury that has become slightly infected.
Surely an infection would be uncomfortable at best?

Hi Viv - hope you're well. Nope it's no bother at all just very strange that it's so uniform in shape and size, obviously a bite of some sort.
We had a great time ta considering they had the worst rain in 30 years!
Yes, ttfn although some friends have come back with bites that then gave them problems, but as there's no itching or pain I agree with you
Dont mean to alarm you masma...but is it like this

Mazie - nope! Outer ring is filled in with the blood spot in the middle. I'm not worried about it at all, as I said just curious.
Well if it has the scab just be careful not to knock it and risk any infection getting in.

Bet Coco was delighted to have you home again :)

She was Viv but unbeknown to me she'd been quite poorly - very bad poops and sicks. She's getting better at last but it's been over a week. Glad my son didn't tell me I'd have been worried to death about her.
I am glad she is getting better, Avril. Perhaps she just stressed out because she missed you. (((CUDDLE))) for Coco ♥

It didn't start till 4 days after we left home, she eats such a load of rubbish - any old, mouldy plums that have dropped off a tree, bread thrown out for birds and even lumps of bubble gum on the pavement!! Can't wonder she gets an upset tum..
Her photo is gorgeous - pulls at my heartstrings every time I look at it x
Bit odd......certainly doesn't sound life threatening or dangerous.....probably a bite.

Monitor the situation for a week or so.

Outer ring has almost gone now just a little dried scab. What a mystery :-)
