What are the side effects of insect bite?
Patient: my 2 yearold had, about 4 days ago, what looked like typical uk midge/gnat insect bites, 2 on one hand and one on his forhead, after a few days they have got smaller but developed a red ring around them. they dont seem to be irritating him.... any ideas? Doctor: Hi,It seems that this is local allergic reaction due to insect bite.Give antihistamine medicine like Benadryl or Cetrizine for 2-3 days.Apply triple actioncream locally.Ok and take care.
