Hello,

It is a mosquito bite. Examine if there is sting so that it can be removed. Apply caladryl lotion and start taking tablet levocetrizine daily morning for ten days. For menopause consult gynecologist for treating hormonal imbalance. Hormone essay is to be done and consult endocrinologist for examination and advise on treatment. hypothyroidism can be treated with levothyroxine.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
