“Could a painful mosquito bite be something more?”
My son has a few painful mosquito bites that are bruising his skin to a purplish color. Could a painful mosquito bite be something more?

It may be an allergic reaction to the mosquito bite.
I would want to know if he’s been scratching at it. It’s likely still exactly that, a bug bite. Try some otc steroid ointment to the bites.
You would benefit from a professional consultation with your health care provider.
