10 Home Remedies For Mosquito Bites
Mosquito Bite Home Remedy #8: Ice
One reaction to mosquito bites is often inflammation. What’s more is that itchy mosquito bites encourage scratching, and this can inflame the tissues around the bite further. This inflammation can worsen the discomfort from a bite, but you could find relief if you lessen the inflammation.
One way to reduce the inflammation of swollen tissues is by applying ice. Take an ice-pack and apply it to the bite and you should find that the irritation is soothed to a degree. You can also place a cloth over the bite and place some ice on top if you don’t have an ice-pack. The coldness of the ice will also help to numb the skin, providing further relief.
