Steroids: A topical steroid will help calm the inflammation and antibiotics can treat secondary infection. See your dermatologist so you can get the best treatment.

Bed bugs: You can take antihistamines if you feel itchy. Topical steroid creams can be used on lesions. For a severe allergic reaction to bites – please seek medical evaluation and treatment.
