How To Cure Blisters On Arms,hands,ear And Neck Due To Mosquito Bite?
Im on holiday in san antonio Texas and I thought Id been bitten by mosquito on palm of my hand-this 'bite' has turned into pin prick blisters over my hands , my arms , behind my ear, neck, belly, chest, eye brow, bottom and private parts - it itches like hell and is hot- taking benadryl which seems to control itch but it still spreading. Please can you advise me as to what cream/medication Ican use - I fly home to UK on wednesday and am dreading the long flight home. Thankyou - sally hearn

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
I have gone through your query and I understand your concern regarding insect bites. I suggest you take Tab Atarax 25 mg thrice daily for three days and apply calamine lotion over the reddened area. Avoid scratching over the insect bites as that might cause spread and increased inflammation. Wear comfortable clothes and you will feel better in a day or two.
Thanks.
