What Can I Do To Prevent Allergic Reaction To Mosquito Bites?
I always have an allergic reaction to mosquito bites and last year I ended up in hospital because a bite on my face caused it to swell up and my eye closed up too. I had to go to a hospital and was given very strong anti histimines and also a hydrocortizone injection which eased the itching and the swelling. What can I take on holoday with me to prevent this happeneing again please.

once you are allergic, you are allergic for life so I would recommend you use topical mosquito repellents and avoid bites
