The victim didn't feel the bite, but saw an ugly little uninvited house guest running around after this blister formed. This is the blister as it appeared 5 days from when she first noticed it. Notice how the blister is red, but contained. That's a good sign; a sprawling redness would indicate spreading infection.

Still, this is the type of thing we call doctors for.
