Cindel Lewis returned home from her trip to Bali to discover the painful burns on her legs which she had unknowingly picked up from a 'rove beetle' whilst on her trip.
A concerned traveller who has returned home from a holiday in Bali issued a warning to other holidaymakers after she unknowingly acquired painful burns that can take years to fade whilst on her trip. Cindel Lewis, from Australia discovered bizarre red marks up and down her legs after her recent visit to the Indonesian island, the Mirror reports.
The blister burns can be severe, potentially lasting for long periods of time yet the majority will be unaware they are happening until a rash appears on the skin between 12 and 36 hours later. This is exactly what happened to Cindel, who wrote on Facebook that she “didn’t even feel it happen” and had “just woken up to the marks on her legs”.
Turning to the internet for help from fellow sufferers, she asked: "Would love to know of anything to put on it to help because everything I’d usually use on a burn is just flaring it up again!" One victim updated them with their own progress almost two months on, replying: "Seven weeks and counting, mine was quite bad, now it just looks like a bruise"
