Last night a house lizard unfortunately fell from the ceiling and went under my bed. I was in it fast sleep, off from my office work. I didn't notice that, but in the morning I had been bitten on my right leg in 3 to 4 areas were it became a red spot like a cherry.
You know it's really painful and burning on my leg. So can anyone give my any advice? Do I need to meet a doctor? Is a house lizard very harmful? Please tell me of your past experiences. I am grateful to you. Thanks.

I live in another country, so I am not aware of what type of lizards you have there. I would go to a doc myself. Are you sure it was a lizard that bit you? I think here they suggest that you get a tetanus shot if you are bitten by anything, and they double check to make sure if wasn't a spider that is poisonous, such as a black widow or brown recluse.
The only truly poisonous lizards live in the USA and Mexico. A house lizard is a gecko, isn't it? They aren't poisonous though they can sometimes spread infection through bacteria. Can you see any puncture marks on the bite? I agree with the other poster, it might not have been a lizard. I'd go to the doctor. Good luck to you!
Dear Hoptownracer1 and Tapestry lady, thanks for your suggestions. Finally, I visited a Doctor near my house and got treated with an injection and few tablets for 3 days. Now its under control, but really last night i was frustrated due to heavy pain on my right leg and skin became reddish like a carrot eye.
