Research Notes on Abnormal Reactions to Mosquito Bites
Many individuals experience minor swelling and itching associated with a mosquito bite, but for some the reaction is much worse. Those who are deemed to have a mosquito bite allergy, or "Skeeter syndrome", experience blistering rashes, bruises or swelling in large areas.1 Although rare, some people may experience anaphylaxis or whole body hives and swelling after being bitten.
