Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam.

I understand your concern.

You possibly seem to have insect bite hypersensitivity.

Many of your symptoms can be ameliorated with Single inj of Hydrocortisone 100 mg IM followed by Tab Deslor 10 mg one tab daily at bedtime for 5 days under medical supervision.

These 2 drugs will provide excellent resolution of your symptoms.

In future try to avoid contact with animal shelters.

Post your further queries if any,
Thank you.
