A member asked:
Why are some of my mosquito bite reactions pea sized, but others are the size of a half-dollar or more?! i don't get complications, just more redness/itchiness than average bites..?

Probably most of your mosquito bites (the small ones) represent local irritation from the bite. Perhaps the larger ones represent trivial bacterial infection carried under your skin by the bite itself. No Rx needed. Spraying exposed skin with DEET (“Off”) will prevent many
