Mosquito Bites – The Best Action To Take

They are an annoying fact of life, mosquitoes.  You’re enjoying one of your fun caribbean holidays getting lots of sun and suddenly (often overnight) you find yourself covered in loads of itchy bites. Quite often we are invading on their territory so being bothered by mosquitoes is usually to be expected. That’s not to say we should accept our suffering however. Just use some of these top tips and you don;t have to let your holiday be ruined.

1.)    Clean the bite and also the surrounding area with soap and water. You should make sure you do this as soon as you have picked up the bite as it will prevent too much swelling and will help guard you against infection. You should continue to keep all bites clean until they have gone down, especcially if your somewhere that maybe has lower standards of cleanliness like Thailand holidays

2.)    Put some ice on a thin towel, wrap it up and place directly onto the bite.This will cool the surrounding area and reduce blood flow to the bite site. The result of which will be a reduction in swelling and relieve from any pain

3.) Try using some baking soda and salt as a natural form of treatment. Make a paste by adding a little water to the baking soda and then add into that a little salt. The baking soda will bring down swelling and the salt will decrease itching. Additionally aloe vera works in a similar way

4.) Man-made medications can be used as well in the treatment process. A tropical anaesthetic that contains pramxomin or calamine lotion will help with irritation and pain. To test for any adverse effects that the medications might have, try them on one bite to start with and stop using if they make them worth.

5.) Drug medications often compliment the other forms of treatment very well.An anti-histamine will work to reduce the bodies negative response to the bite and will generally make you feel bett. Anti-inflammatory drugs like ibuprofen do pretty much the same job but better reduce swelling
