| Jun 29, 2016 at 7:46 | comment | added | Akabelle | I assume you considered the possibility of having simply a mark from some physical impact: when you hit yourself, you get that purple mark, which then turns into many other colors. Sometimes hitting some object is absolutely unnoticed, you just see the mark on your body days later. What makes you think that it is an insect bite? The itching only? | |

Added measurements in inches. Fixed small typo.
