How to get rid of bug bites and have super soft smooth pretty skin again?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don't Scratch: Bug bites should settle down on their own. Take precautions not to get more bites. Don't pick or scratch the skin as that will irritate the area further. You can use Hydrocortisone cream on the bite if it is not open or infected to relieve itching and inflammation.
