Mosquito Bites

I never get mosquito bites, but all of the sudden this summer I am getting eaten alive. I even have one on my eyelid...any suggestions on how to get rid of them?

You may be able to put Benadryl cream on your eyelid. It may at least stop you from rubbing/scratching at it so it can heal....

on my honeymoon the bites were so bad nad my reaction was so bad that i ended up in the 24 hr on call doc. office. she said :

rub them down with soap and water then alcohol

she also said when you scratch them to infect them and allow them to get bigger.

also use bg spray everytime you will be outside for long periods of time

I swear by digging a cross in them! Just use your fingernail to make a cross!
