Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
It appears from your description that you are having an allergic reaction due to insect bite.
Take Tablet. Levocetrizine 10 mg once a day for itching. You can apply Calamine lotion to reduce inflammation and to give soothening effect to skin.
Gradually, your symptoms should subside and get better in a couple of days.
Wish you good health.
