What Are Itchy Red Bite Marks On Body Suggestive Of?
i moved into an old home three months ago. since then a have been getting itchy red bites that don t go away. the itching is horrible. i did some cleaning upon the garden a few times. they first appeared on my hip area, forearms, neck and shoulders. in the past three weeks, more have appeared on my legs, behind my knee s and in the fold of one arm. we do not have any pets and no-one else in the house is being bitten . we live in vancouver canada. what could this be??
Hi, From history it seems that this might be due to some insect or mosquito or bug bite causing this problem. due to cleaning and doing some gardening work this might have happened. Take Benadryl or cetrizine for few days. Apply Caladryl lotion on affected parts. Keep your surroundings in room clean and well ventilated. Ok and take care.
