Language Partner bit by bug has big swollen hand and wrist
My language partner (Chinese PhD student at Brown) got bit by something on Sunday. She got bit on the back of her hand maybe an inch in front of her wrist. Her whole hand puffed way up and it extends about 4 inches above her wrist. Its really swollen like she broke it but its from the big bite. She said it was definitely not a bee (she knows what a bee is) but she didn't know what it was that bit her.
She went to the school infirmary and they gave her steroids , antihistamine and pain meds.
I have never seen anyone have such a big allergic reaction to a big bite here in RI ( or anywhere really).
