Suggest Medication For Chronic Dark Spots Caused By Mosquito Bites
hi I am 26 years old and from a young age like 3 years old I have been bitten by mosquitos and now I have over 20 years worth of dark spots they are only on my legs and arms ive tried various creams and they have lightened up a little but there still very visible and laser or any surgeries are out of the question. I need some sort of home remedy that I can use.
The possible diagnosis of the condition based on the description of the lesions is papular urticaria or insect bite hypersensitivity.You should try to use mosquito nets as much as possible. Topical mild steroid cream like mometasone can be applied over the affected area. Oral antihistamines like fexofenadine may also be used. Consult your dermatologist regarding the above mentioned therapy. Regards
