Hi everyone,
I'm new here, my husband and I live in Ohio, and traveled to Santa Domingo in 1998, where unfortunately, my husband was bitten by something? while chasing a chicken from our horseshoe game. He brushed a bush, and afterwards noticed a mark on his Left upper abdomen, we didn't think much of it, at the time.
After 8 more days, we returned home and he noticed a hard spot where he was bitten, a little redness,and it slowly went away unassisted, he never saw a Dr. (or if he did,I can't remember) and if he did, nothing was done.
okay, now we come to 13 years later, and he has pain in that exact spot, and a roughness when palpated, I can feel. He had a CT scan of his abdomen and pelvis last week, no results back yet.
Can anyone tell me if they feel this could be a result of the bite he received in the DR?
Thank you for your help.
Diane
