  • How to Reduce Swelling and Irritation from Insect Bites

    Posted by Leah Leilani on July 21, 2020 at 4:00 pm

    Have you been suffering from insect bites this summer? Are you notorious for attracting bugs and are constantly being bitten?

    I have what’s called Skeeter Syndrome which is an allergic reaction to mosquito saliva. Once bitten, the bite immediately begins to swell, finally resulting in a huge welt. The itching is nearly impossible to bear. When this happens, which is frequently in the summer months, I grab ice and apply it to the effected area along with a topical called After Bite. I’ve also recently discovered a fabulous invention called Bite Away that applies heat to the initial wound, helping to reduce swelling, itching and irritation.
