What can i use on an infant to relieve itching from bug bite?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergy: You can use benedryl gel locally. Any time you think your infant got an insect bite, wash the area with soap and water immediately and use a moisturizing lotion/ Benadryl (diphenhydramine) gel or in case of too much redness you can use otc 1% Hydrocortisone cream.
