Suggest Treatment For Red Itchy Spots On Skin After Chiggers Bite
I went fishing and the next day developed red itchy spots in the lining of my clothing. I figured it was chiggers. A few days later I got a few more, possibly from wearing a contaminated piece of clothing. I washed everything but now get a bite or two or three all clustered every 3-5 days. Clothing and bedding all washed. New bites seem to come at night. I do have a dog that sleeps in my bed does not seem to be effected.

Hi,
All the symptoms you have are side effects of the ingradient hormone progesteron...in long acting form.
Such problems are evident in beginning of depo use. Though irregular menses, bloating, breast tenderness remain off & on as a side effect.
They can be managed by lifestyle changes including regular exercises.eatong in time &optimum serving. Only precaution needed is genital hygiene maintainable.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
