Got bit on the arm?

Author: admin

i got bit, or stung, or something when i was swimming yesterday, it didn't injured, it just itched for a while. Now it is itching again, and i want to know how to make it stop.

There is just a little red bump there, that really itches.

I tried hydrocortisone cream, but it didn't help

Do you know any home remedys, that wuold help

Thanks


Answer:
At CVS you can get anti-itch cream, it comes in a small bottle and is a faded pink. Mix thats with a dab of vaseline and mix it up. This always works for me and I hope it works for you!

Answer:
how about some good old savlon?

if you apply a drop of lemon juice and a pea sized amount of toothpaste to the sting it will cool it down, it shouldnt sting because the ingredients in the toothpaste minimize it,

also aqua fresh works the best (the one with the red,white & blue stripes)


Answer:
This isn’t a home remedy but try some Benadryl. It relieves itching, swelling, but it will make you sleepy as well. Don't take it and drive a car.

Answer:
apply a paste of meat tenderizer to the area. It eases the itch and helps remove the poison.
