Suggest remedy for purple wound from insect bite
Patient: I was stung or bitten by something on my stomach....very strong sting at first, then maybe again...then I didn't feel and pain after a little while...when I looked at it later, it was bright red and swelling and itching...now, 3 days later, it has turned purple...what should I do? Doctor: HI, thanks for using healthcare magicThe purple discolouration is due to the bruising as a result of the bite sting. It will resolve in a few days .It does not signify a  problems.If it is painful then the use of an anti inflammatory pain killers would be helpful for a few days. ( Eg- ibuprofen, cataflam, aspirin, naproxen, celebrex)I hope this helps
