Pediatrician 's  Response
Hi, this appears to be insect bite. In insect bite redness and itching appears at the site of insect bite which usually have a dot at centre suggestive of sting. In my opinion, you should give hydroxizine syrup 5 ml PO three times a day for 3 days. I hope this will help you. Take care.
