How do i wash my hair with a spider bite on my acalp?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is important to wash the area of an insect bite thoroughly with soap and warm water. This reduces the amount of bacteria on the skin and cleans out the wound. Wash your hair the way you always do. Try not to scratch the scalp or damage the bite area.
