Relief for insect bites
I’ve just spent a very uncomfortable and itchy night - I seem to have been bitten (not sure by what? ) and have a series of bites that have literally kept me awake. I have just been up to press something from the freezer on them as the cold seems to help temporarily.
Just wondering what can I do to ease the itchiness? Is it worth a trip to the pharmacy in the morning? Oh and I’m just here in the UK by the way - was never bitten in Florida! |

We use the Boots bite cream it’s quite good, it is very hard not to scratch though isn’t it, then you’re left with red scars

I’ve just found some hydrocortisone cream in my bathroom cupboard from when I was bitten previously (why is it always me that attracts them 😭 so have put some on. Never known anything like this itching, would rather knock myself out than try and sleep through that again.

I got a gel type cream for Mexico called antandol. I don’t know if you can get it here but it is a live saver and I don’t know what I’ll do when I run out lol! It literally makes the itching stop !
