How long does it take for bug bites rash to go away?
Patient: I have had a severe allergic reaction to bug bites. The rash is bright pink and is covered on my arm back legs and feet. How long will it take for the rash to go away? I have been prescribed hydrocortisone 2.5% and hydroxyzine 25mg tablets and also prednisolone. I m very distressed please respond to this. Thanks Doctor: Hi,  The rash usually resolves in around 2 weeks. But new rashes occur, if you have not made your environment bug free. You can continue the treatment advised by your doctor and follow him/her.   Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Regards,  Dr. Siva Subramanian,  Dermatologist
