I seem to attract mosquitoes lately though I get quite sick from them. Yesterday I was bitten 4 times in my right arm and on my right hand. I had very generously covered myself in bug repellant too. Last night as usual after a bug bite I came up in big hard hot lump where I had been bitten. Today my arm is agony I can hold a cup without it hurting. It is a dull ache my joint ache in my arm and its hot to the touch and swollen. I also feel weak and unwell this is normal for me if I am bitten more than once. Can you suggest something I can take to ease the symptoms. Thanks
Hi. This is very uncommon presentation. This indicates the hypersensitivity you have to such trivial bites. I would advise seeking a Doctors help to rule out any medical condition which is enhancing this response. As far the present problem, I would advise you to take antihistamine and steroid if necessary under the prescription of a Doctor. You have to take extra care. You may consult a Doctor dealing with allergy, he can tell you the ways to desensitize this problem.
