I have this a mosquito bite from late night at a bond fire, it's on my arm.
It's really big and it makes my other arm look smaller than the one with the mosquito bite.
What do I do to make the swelling go down.
++
I'm going out again with my boyfriend today, and I don't want him to notice it.
In other words.
HELP!

Stop scratching and put on calamine lotion and aloe vera. Ice inside a towel or cloth might bring down the redness and swelling. Cold chamomile tea bags are another option. If you want to cover them up, wear light mesh blouse, a lace overtop or else, a crochet vest. This won't make you look silly in the summer, nor will it be unsuitable for evening. You shouldn't get too hot unless you are experiencing a heat wave.
Next time, try using Deep Woods Off. I know the smell is awful but it works. You can get netting for the backyard and patio, a fly swap helps and there are calendula oil lamps and candles available should this be an ongoing problem. Stay away from Avon Skin So Soft, it doesn't work.

When I get bug bites I put a really lit color of nail polish on it and it will go away a lot faster.

Here in Florida, Witch Hazel, ice, good luck. Why would you care, nature, maybe he'll spend the bucks go inside.

benadryl. just any good skeeter bite medication will help, normally with the itch. but it'll get smaller...

if he notices tell him what happened i'm sure a little extra attention from your bf won't hurt
