Alright calm down, first things first. Get those bites under hot water and I mean HOT water. Put the hot water on a wash cloth and put on the bites, it will hurt but that would be a good solution. Do this for about half an hour, then once you have had the soaked under hot water rush over to the bath room and get creams and ointments that could help such as Itch cream, Gold bond anything that will help. The stuff that works the best are Mexican itch creams. If you get some of the Mexican stuff on the redness will be gone inside 5 minutes at the most 10 minute believe me it works. If you don't have Mexican itch cream and you live close to the border rush over there as soon as possible and get some of there itch cream. Or if you don't have Mexican itch cream and you don't live close to the border use them most powerful stuff you have, oh and call up your date to tell the person you will be a bit late.

If you have any witch hazel. Also, there are other clear mosquito treatment items like Calamine lotion...that are clear, as opposed to pink/white when dried. Just don't scratch. Your crush should more than likely understand especially when you tell him about how you were eaten alive last night. If he doesn't...I would be inclined to tell him to grow a set. I wouldn't pinch them, because that will only enflame the bite and make it swell up again. The "itching" is a large part of how they do or will appear.

o.k. settle down, first issues first. Get those bites below warm water and that i advise warm water. positioned the warm water on a wash fabric and positioned on the bites, that's going to wreck yet that could desire to be a sturdy answer. try this for approximately 0.5 an hour, then as quickly as you have had the soaked below warm water rush over to the tub room and get creams and ointments that could desire to help including Itch cream, Gold bond something which will help. The stuff that works the final are Mexican itch creams. in case you get most of the Mexican stuff on the redness would be long gone interior 5 minutes on the main 10 minute have faith me it works. in case you have no longer have been given Mexican itch cream and you reside close to to the border rush over there as quickly as a threat and get a number of there itch cream. Or in case you have no longer have been given Mexican itch cream and you do no longer stay close to to the border use them maximum effectual stuff you have, oh and get in touch with up your date to tell the guy you would be slightly previous due.

Earlier this summer i was bitten several times too, it sounds strange but my mom had me put Preperation H on them, and it really does reduce the swelling and takes away the itch.

calimine lotion helps it makes whitish stuff on skin but helps with the burnign and itching. you jsut have to bear it and make sure its cleaned every day alos can use aleo vera also for pain.
