Is windex good for bug bites?

Unsure: If you were in the cast of the "Big Fat Greek Wedding", the answer would be yes. I do not see any therapeutic effect from it but it may soothe the itching a little. For itchy lesions, hydrocortisone cream works better. For sores, you may need an antibiotic. Some bites (black widow, brown recluse spiders) often require medical attention.

If it swells up whenever unwell or due to bug bites then reduces in size, is this a good sign. It's never full shrunk since tonsillitis? It is also very movable.
