How To Cure Red Bites On Upper Legs And Body

I have bites on my upper legs & body. They are like a red ant bite. When I scratch them they have a clear liquid inside & itch terrible. I do not have fleas but the bite is similar. I recently got a 8wk old pot belly pig.. Do they carry anything that would be biting me? Thanks

Hello,

Would recommend you to apply topical steroid like cortisone cream on the affected areas twice daily and take antihistaminic like tablet cetrizine 10 mg twice daily.

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

Take care
