Im extremely allergic to mosquito bites, when i get a bite say the lower half of my arm, the whole part swells up so much and its really painful and irritating. It stays swollen for a week, and i was wondering is there any way that i could make it heal faster?
and also how come, mosquitos always bite me but not my sister or my friends when we are in the same room? there once was atime where me and two other friends were having a sleep over together, we slept in one room... and i ended up with 21 mosquito bites, my friends got 0.... (this was in Japan)

Nasty little beasties, those mosquitos.
Try avoid being bitten, cover up when out side, and use anti bug spray. Once you have been bitten, take an anti-histamine, as soon as possible, and cool bite down with a cold compress, apply a paste of bi-carb soda, or calamine solution.

I had a cousin that was allergic to mosquito bites; they would make her vomit repeatedly. She went to an allergy specialist and somehow they helped her.

The more CO2 you let off the more attractive they find you, best bet in to use Skin So Soft, lemongrass oil, OFF or keep some bounce dryer sheets with you
