Suggest Treatment For Dents Formed Post Bug Bite Treatment
Hi I was bitten 1 1/2 months ago by bed bugs on my arms and buttock. I learned that i was allergic and started being treated. I was very swollen where the bites were to the point of having large knots. When I completed my medicine the knots went down but left an enormous dent on my buttock that isn t going away. What should I do?

Hi,
After bitting of bud on arms and buttocks, chances of developing black dents are common and it's inflammatory response to bite. You should start normal lotion massage which increases blood circulation and gradually dent will go away. But it takes around 4 to 5 month. there is no specific treatment needed.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
