Suggest Remedy For Painful Scab And Peeled Skin In The Area Of Mosquito Bite
I watched a mosquito bite my finger, and the next day I was rubbing it to avoid scratching it. The whole bite site peeled off and was showing signs of infection. Now the infection seems to be gone, but the scab hurts and feels like it s being stretched when I bend my finger. Have you ever heard of this before?

Hi,
Thanks for the details provided.
I would suggest you to apply a moisturiser over the scab .
Please don't try to peel it and allow it to fall off on its own.
Thank you
