Where's Contortionism When You Need It?

[kyra_ojosverdes]

There is some form of insect-bite-thing on the back of my left thigh, midway betwixt buttcheekland and kneeville. It feels bumpy and like it's grown over the past three or four days. It also feels like some secondary (removed by at least 1/2") bumps are forming around it. The main bumpy mass is about the size of a dime.

I can't SEE it! I WANT to see it, and the little hand-mirror trick isn't going to do it, partly because I don't have a hand-mirror.

Frustration.

You have access to a digital camera, do you not? Can it be rigged for a live video feed so that you can periscope it around?

Otherwise, I'm afraid you'll have to get your information from charcoal rubbings or Silly Putty imprints ...unless you're able to sit on your bathroom sink with your left foot on the mirror, without going over backward onto the tile. Maybe standing on the sink and bending over as if to touch your toes would be a better idea to get a look.

(Possible TMI: I've had to be more flexible around our own vanity sink than I'd prefer to have been these last few weeks. Our houseguest with OCD closes himself in the bathroom for hours at a time, and I occasionally have found myself peeing in the sink. Which always reminds me of the line from _Big Business_, when Bette Midler's character is trying to sound educated on her first trip to the big city. She sees a mini-bar sink in her hotel room, and remarks that the French call that a bidet. Lily Tomlin's response: "The French must be taller than me.")

The lack of a hand mirror doth present a rather sticky situation....
