Mosquito Bite relief?
Does anyone have good tips for mosquito bite itch/swelling relief? I sometimes have allergic reactions to the bites, and right now the back of my left thigh looks like I have a giant bruise!It's the size of two half dollars next to one another and SO itchy! I also have large ones on my knee and ankle. HELP!!! I put cortizone on them, but that's not doing much. Thanks!

I get reactions sometimes to. Take a benadryl if you have it or any other allergy pill. Do you have any witch hazel in the house? That helps the itching.

I swell into huge welts when I get bit! I have started using this stuff called After Bite and I have to say it works really well. It take the swelling down pretty quickly and gets rid of the itch!

Dab a Q-tip in ammonia and then dab it on the bite.

Ammonia is probably in After Bite, that's all you need.

I use rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball.
