A member asked:

What to do if i have a really uncomfortable bug bite. how can i get rid of it right away?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bug bites: The most effective thing I know for bug bites is a sliced onion. Slice the onion and rub it on the bug bite...even if it is a day later. It neutralizes the toxins and reduces swelling and itching.
