Abstract

ABSTRACT Bedbugs seem to have become more common due to international trade and travelling. We report on a 37-year-old man who developed a bullous reaction with fever and general malaise due to bites of the common bedbug, Cimex lectularius . Fortunately, bullous and systemic reactions are rare. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
