How can allergic itching all over the body be treated?
Patient: I got bit by a bunch of mosquitos, and black and yellow longhorn beetles and now my entire forearms and calves are covered from top to bottom in bites, and they re relentlessly itchy. I can t sleep, patches of my face are red, and my lips got chapped very suddenly. Please explain possible causes. Thanks! Doctor: Hi i do care for your concern. Your history suggest allergic reaction to the insect bites. This is a type of hypersensitivity reaction against substance released by these insect. I would advise To consult your physician and get a shot of dexa if needed. Taking medication such as benadryl will help to reduce the itching. application of calamine lotion over skin will add to the help. Hope i have answered your question, if you have more feel free to ask. Thank you.
