This is what I pulled from another site. "After the bite, some saliva of the mosquito remains on the wound. The proteins present in the saliva evoke an immune response in the body. The area that is bitten swells up and is called the wheal. After some time, the swelling goes away but the bitten area will continue to itch until the immune cells of the body break down the saliva proteins.
Yes, Plasmodium does affect mosquitoes. It infects and multiplies within the mosquito's gut before moving to its salivary glands, where it can be transmitted to humans when the mosquito bites.
Malaria parasites undergo sexual reproduction in the mosquito vector. When a mosquito bites an infected person, it ingests male and female gametocytes. These gametocytes fuse in the mosquito gut to form zygotes, which eventually develop into sporozoites, restarting the cycle of transmission.
The vector for Plasmodium, the parasite that causes malaria, is the female Anopheles mosquito. These mosquitoes can transmit the parasite to humans through their bites during blood meals.
The Anopheles mosquito is the vector that transmits the malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax into the bloodstream. When an infected mosquito bites a person, it injects the parasite into the bloodstream, where it multiplies and causes malaria.
The pathogenic protozoan that causes malaria, Plasmodium, is primarily transmitted to humans through the bites of infected female Anopheles mosquitoes. When an infected mosquito bites a person, it injects Plasmodium parasites into their bloodstream, where they then travel to the liver and red blood cells to multiply and cause infection.
They could be insect bites but I'm not sure. Probably mosquito or horsefly.
If you are experiencing several bumps all over your legs, it could be boils; seek medical attention.
It is a slim possibility. If the bumps get worse, seem to bother the cat, or do not go away in a few days contact the vet.
If you have one or two bumps that look like mosquito bites on your top lip and they seem to have come out of nowhere, they could be a couple different things. You may have cold sores, or you may have actually been bitten by an insect, perhaps while sleeping.
