Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi my husband just got back from traveling to and from Rhode Island from being there for two weeks and he came back with a bunch of bug bites but we thought were mosquito bites however one of them was about the size of a tiny ingrown hair and now it is spread to about 2 x 2 on his back and it s really hot and irritated. However he isn t sure if he should go to the doctor or see what happens.
As per your history, generally they go away on their own. for irritation, you can apply calamine lotion after consultation. for itching you can take tab. Levocetrizine after consultation. kindly consult with physician if you have fever with chills etc.
Hope I have answered your query.
