Hello people who are fat is it normal for mosquito bites over fatty tissue to just... swell up to the size of my palm or is there something wrong with me actually

I have not experienced this and if I were you I'd get someone to look at that if possible

Wait, is it only over fatty tissues?

Because I know some people who get massive swelling from bites, but it's all over and independent of weight, which I think is an allergy.

Yup, I know it's not allergy b/c the bites on my arms only get small hard bumps, the kind I used to get as a kid. But the ones on my legs, especially on my thighs, are absolutely enormous. The main difference is that the bites on my legs are over fat.

Yeah that's not normal. I don't think "palm sized" is normal either, I've never seen anything bigger than two centimeters across.

Nope, that's not at all standard for mosquito bites. I've never heard of having a different reaction to them on different body parts, but that's definitely Some Kinda Reaction.

yeah, the ones on my legs look totally different from the ones on my arms and back :/ man. I don't want to go to a doctor, that seems like effort.

I don't get mosquito bites often anymore but that's definitely not normal.
