Do I even HAVE ankles? Oh, there they are

The swelling went down on my one ankle (the one in the photo). I do have a plethora of bites on my other ankle too, as well as a few scattered over my calves, but that ankle is the worst. The stuff the pharmacist quickly grabbed for me from behind his really tall counter seems to be working but it makes my ankles look like I am part reptile with a bad case of scabies so I am opting out of capris or shorts for a few days and dealing with long pants. On the bright side, I am not being driven insane by the itching (you know that itching when you scratch it and your eyes are rolling back in your head, you are making “Ahhhh…” sounds and it feels better than an orgasm as long as you keep scratching until it bleeds?).
