How To Distinguish Mosquito Bites And Bug Bites?
Recently I got some bite on my body some or rather a few of the bite are in clusters of three but most of them are individual bites on my arms and on my waist and back I don t know if they are mosquito bites from a 4th of July cook-out or from sleeping on my moms sofa keep in mind, I was in South Carolina when this happened. I put tooth paste on the bites and they seem to be a little better can you show me the difference between these two bites.

Does any other family member is having the similiar problem,,,,does it itch more in night if so then it might be scabies,it is a mite infestation...nothing to worry about...Apply permethrine 5% lotion to the whole body and change the beddings and wash the clothes you wore in last 2-3 days...repeat it after one week...take antihistamine like levocetrizine 10mg at night time for itching ...thanks
