Help!! how do you cure extremely itchy mosquito bites?!?

Question

i have 5 mosquito bites on my left foot; one on my ankle and they're killing me i tried not to scratch but they itched while i was sleeping and i scratched too much and now they're itchy and scabbed. are there any home type of remedies that will cure the itch?

so far i've put alcohol/witch hazel and anbesol on them which seems to be good they've stopped itching but is this safe?? any other methods??

Answer 1

I used to have so many on my leg. Some people said saliva is really good but.. I guess that's sort of a hard option. Some said bathing in like oatmeal or something. I found that soaking the bites in really hot water, like in the shower I have a removable shower head, is the best at getting rid of the itch. Also, using a loofa and soap is sorta a way to scratch the bites but it doesn't really irritate them. I would suggest the hot water ritual from experience.

After-Bite is good but they don't get rid of the itch sometimes I find. I've never tried the Benadryl Itch-Stick that the above person mentioned but that may work. Benadryl from experience is an extremely reputable company so definitely you can try that.

Answer 2

Put minty toothpaste on them, always works for me. The witch hazel should work well too. I am allergic to mosquito bites, mine always get far itchier and larger than other peoples, my doctor gave me some cream which numbs the area and stops the itch instantly.
