Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
ive been recently getting these bug bites, and im not sure if theyre from mosquitos or not but they have never been this bad. They swell up and spread about 2 inches and feel very itchy and hot. I applied cortizone to the bites but it doesnt seem to be getting better

Hello, Thankyou for your contact to health care magic. If I am your treating doctor I would like to tell that bug bite causes allergic reaction you can discuss this chlorpheniramine maleate, prednislone, antibiotic powder neosporin with your treating doctor. Also do not forget to think about local hygiene of wound. If you want to ask me any thing else you can ask me. We wish you a best health at health care magic.
