I have what appears to be a series of bites arouund my left knee. I had one cluster earlier in the week and I put benadryl cream on it and it seemed to get better - they are still there but better. Tonight, I noticed I have another one. It s red and a bit swollen.

Hi
According to your complaints it seems to be insect bite reaction.
Apply cortisone cream on the affected areas twice daily and take tablet Cetrizine 10 mg once daily at bedtime.
