Ok im speaking from experience. Keep it covered and clean. Soak it in alcohol to prevent a staff infection. Do your research find out the specifics and symptoms dont just google it youll just find out you have cancer. There isnt really a way to decrease swelling you just have to live with that trust me i tried. Keeping it clean and protected is the most important part you dont want to lose a hand to a staff infection. I dont mean to scare you im just being realistic.

Thank you! The doctor told me that it should be okay as I'm taking antibiotics but it looks really gross so I just wanted to see if there was anything else I could do.

Itll look gross trust me itll be unpleasant i got bit in my sleep on a trip to El Salvador. But yeah its almost never the bit that puts people in the hospital its the infection.

It's right on my neck as well, I went on a camping trip with friends and came back with it... Not fun
