What Made My Foot To Swell After Walking In Grass Causing Itching?
Earlier I was walking outside and the side walk was cut off so I had to walk through grass to keep out of the street. All of a sudden I felt the need to scratch my toe. The itch was soo string that every few minutes I had to bend down and scratch. I knew scratching it wouldn t make it better so I stopped even though it was itching I couldn t take. I got home and my whole foot is swollen. I got bit on my 4th toe and it spread to the whole top of my foot not affecting my other toes. It hurts sooo bad to walk. Any suggestions or help? Please and thank you

What Made My Foot To Swell After Walking In Grass Causing Itching?
Hi, Welcome to HCM. You seem to have got an allergic reaction to an insect bite. You can apply ice over the swollen foot to soothe the inflammation. Application of calamine will help. You can Tab Atarax 25 mg twice daily for three days and the swelling will reduce soon. Keep the foot exposed to air and use warm water to clean the inflamed area. Thanks.
