Suggest Remedy For Itchy Skin Rashes Due To Bedbug Bites

Can you recommend a treatment for possible bed bug bits. I have rashes and bites on both arms and legs and my back. The itching is horrible but only seems to effect me at night. I have tried the OTC products for insect bites but they do not offer any long term relief.Thank you.

Hi,

I have gone through your complaints and would recommend you to apply topical steroid like Clobetasol Propionate cream on the affected areas twice daily and take antihistaminic like tablet Cetirizine once or twice daily depending on the intensity of itching.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Asmeet Kaur Sawhney, Dermatologist
