Suggest Treatment For Bug Bites On Legs And Arms In A Child
Hello, my 2 year old daughter has, what appears to be, bug bites all over her legs and arms. I ve ruled out bed bugs for the most part as she does not attend a daycare and I ve checked my home. I ve also taken her to two pediatricians who do not belive they are bed bugs. The problem is, I keep seeing new bites AND the old ones still seem to itch her. I don t know what to do.

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms of your child seem to be related to bug bites.
I suggest using an antihistamine such as Cetirizine 10 mg to relieve the itching.
I also suggest using a steroid cream for local application.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
