Suggest Medication For Ant Bites
I am a mid- 40's male who works outdoors clearing bushes and weeds, Ive been bitten all over my body (including my penile shaft), recently by what i believe was black ants, while these bitten areas are not sore, they do itch and are swollen also. only fluid that comes out is clear.

thank you for posting your query in healthcaremagic.com....
well it does not seem like a major reaction following ant bite....
for the itching and swelling, take antihistaminics like allegra or benadryl for few days and it will be alright....
it persists, use steroid ointments over the affected places...
dont worry...it should be better with the above medications for sure...
hope that was helpful....
contact me for any further queries....
