After a bonfire out the woods which for the first time I didn't have bugspray with me, my ankles were basically eaten alive. I have your typical mosquito bites, then I have a total of 4 bubbles(or used to be rather). 3 on my left ankle, 1 small one on my right. They were filled with a yellowish liquid before I popped them and now they've been leaking the same liquid all day.

I can take pictures if necessary but basically they were squishy bubbles filled with fluid and when I popped them with my knife they didn't hurt. They continue to leak this yellowish fluid which I wipe off every half an hour.

Any ideas? I've sprayed the leaks with antiseptic every few hours.
