Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
i got bit by something 3 times, once on each foot, and once on my back, the one on my right foot has caused pretty decent swelling, the one on the left only a little bit and none on my back. it itches and burns and feels a bit sore. should i be concerned?
The symptoms seem to be related to a bug bite. I suggest using an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg daily. I also suggest using Calamine lotion for local application.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
