Need Help With A Bug Bite

I need help! Got a bug bite that is not healing up... )O: PICS to SEE.?

Spider bite for sure. Venom from the spider usually causes local tissue damage. The following are the most common symptoms of a bite. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:

burning, pain, itching, or redness at the site which is usually delayed and may develop within several hours or days of the bite
a deep blue or purple area around the bite, surrounded by a whitish ring and large red outer ring similar to a "bulls eye"
an ulcer or blister that sometimes turns black
headache, body aches
rash
fever
nausea or vomiting

Specific treatment for a spider bite will be determined by your physician. Treatment may include:

Wash the area well with soap and water.
Apply a cold or ice pack wrapped in a cloth, or a cold, wet washcloth to the site.
To protect against infection, particularly in children, apply an antibiotic lotion or cream.
Give acetaminophen for pain.
Elevate the site if the bite occurred on an arm or leg (to help prevent swelling).
Seek immediate emergency care for further treatment. Depending on the severity of the bite, treatment can range from administering corticosteroids and other medications to surgery of the ulcerated area. Hospitalization may be needed.
Prompt treatment is essential to avoid more serious complications, especially in children.
These ulcers if not treated properly get infected and are slow to heal because of the tissue damage.

Does windex helps with bug bites?

haha, this question makes me giggle a bit, and i don't know for a fact if windex would help, but i wouldn't risk it. get hydrocortisone cream, which is meant to stop the itching. toothpaste actually works as a quick fix too.
if you're asking this for if it'll make them look better, just don't scratch at them and after a while, they'll get better and you're skin will just return to normal.

Bug Bite On My Tattoo? Please Help?!?

So, I'm pretty sensitive to mosquito bites. They eat me alive and when I get a bite, it itches like you wouldn't believe. It gets pretty swollen too. I just need to itch it a few time and I'll start bleeding.

The other day I got a bug bite on my tattoo and I need to know if it will scab or ruin my tattoo if I itch it and it starts bleeding. Usually, I don't scar from bug bites..I'm just worried about my tattoo.

Thanks!

Slow healing bug bite?

I had a few bug bites on my right hand some time ago. I stupidly scratched at it a bit....weeks later after letting it heal....it itches and the skin look very pruney...like it's not fully healed, although the scaby parts have falled off (on it's own accord).

-- Will it stop itching soon and will the skin always look so pruney?

--I've never had a bite that left my skin 'damaged' for such a period of time...I'm guess it might be more than a mosquito like the other ones...you think?....I live in the bay area....so I'm trying to figure out what kind of spider could leave such a complicated wound.

Blood clot or bug bite or ingrown hair? please need help!!!!?

My boyfriend showed me a bump that might have been at least the size of a dime...that was 2 days ago. So last night I looked at it again and its the size of a dollar coin..and its hot and he says hurts and naking his calf hurt. I looked to see if I can see bite marks or the head to an ingrown hair but all I see is a solid bump, no markings. He is a heavy set Guy, he doesn't go to the Doc and hasn't been in years...I'm worried, and doesn't have insurance so dk what to do. He says he is fine but all guys say that. Please help!!!!

How do bed bugs bite through clothing?

Yes.Bed bugs will bite through clothing but they don’t even need to. They will find the best warm place where clothing doesn’t protect you so unless you wear a diving suite…if there are bed bugs in your bed, they will bite youAs a matter of fact bed bugs are about the worst vermin to have around. Mosquitoes are annoying, especially because they tend to bzzzz near your ears but you can easily get rid of them by staying up all night, trying to kill them…or you just apply some Deet product, problem solved. Not so with bed bugs. They keep biting. Cockroaches are filthy bugs…but they don’t bite! Flies are even filthier. Some of them bite but at least you see/hear them coming. Not so bedbugs. Wasps should be eradicated from the earth as they are irritated without cause and then will sting you 5 times in a row because they like your sweets. Horrors from outer space but run inside or use an electric fly swatter and the alien buggers are annihilated.Not so bed bugs. Even as an experienced pest control officer, considered in Flandres, Belgium + Northern France as just about the best in the field I found bed bugs hard to get rid of. Of course, the unhygienic places where you find them don’t really help but the same could be said about cockroaches and those were rather easy jobs.Only one thing worse: genital lice. Once got them by sleeping in a bed with dirty bed linnen and as D.H. Lawrence put it: they were the worst thing for any soldier to put up with. Spraying a vagina with a synthetic pyrethroid helps but not every woman likes a strange man to do that. And bed bugs bite everywhere so yes, they are the worst by far!through clothing? Go to bed as a fundamentalist muslim woman with heavy duty masochistic clothing: they will crawl underneath and have the night of their live. It’s in muslim homes they are the most frequent in our capital!
