Detailed Answer:
hi,
Thanks for query.
Welt is a terrible reaction for a mosquito bite unless you were exposed to its bite for the first time. I suggest to upload if I have different thoughts apart from mosquito. You can rub on aspirin or disprin paste (water drops n tablet) over it if not allergic to them. this helps for time being.
