Specializes in Pediatrics

General wound care: Insect Bites can be treated with washing, drying, application of antibiotic ointment and covering with a bandage. Change this bandage daily. If the area around the site shows outwardly spreading redness, see your Dr as it may be infected and require antibiotics.
