Hope To Have Affected By Bed Bugs. Have White Bumps, Are Itchy. Suggestions And Treatment?
Thank-You yes you may help me. I have been having a problem with bed bugs. at first I felt nothing. Then I started to find them on my bed and they were big. When dusted the room abd took the bed apart and dusted and vaccumed. I had formed these itch white bumps on my arm and they are itchy. Could the bed bugs have did this to me do I have an allergic reaction to them. If Yes, what do I tell my doctor to get the right treatment. I am homeless and I am using this computer it belongs to a friend of mine. I have been trying to get SSI so that I can be able to take care of myself. Sorry I don't have a job therefore I don't have any money to pay for this service. I use MAP card to get medical services and because I am homeless my office visits are free and so are my meds. I m sorry to have waited your time.
Hi, Thanks for writing to us. Those itchy bumps on your arms could be due to bed bug bites. To treat the same, you may take tablet cetirizine orally to reduce itch. Apply steroid cream like hydrocortisone and calamine lotion to resolve the lesions.as far as removal of bed bugs are concerned, you need to wash your beddings and bed sheets in hot water and then use a dryer at high heat for 10 to 20 minutes to kill the bed bugs. Simple vacuuming or cleaning wont help. Hope that helps. Take care
