Insect Bites

There are several types of bugs and insects that can cause painful reactions on your body once you are bitten. Aside from the pain, most bites or stings can be fatal as well. Bug bites, in particular, pose danger due to the possibility of developing a severe allergic reaction.

Most stings or bites suffered by individuals are often caused by unidentified bugs or insects. You can use general first aid treatments to avoid further damage on the affected area:

• Create an ice pack and apply it to the area of the sting or bite. Allow the ice pack to sit on the area for about 20 minutes and rest for at least 20 minutes before applying another ice pack.

• Seek treatment on anaphylaxis when the patient is suffering from shortness of breath, chest pain, heart palpitations, itching, swelling, hallucinations, etc.

• In cases of involuntary muscle movements, call for medical assistance.

• To relieve pain, sting swabs often do the job.

First Aid for Ant Bites

Ant bites are common and offer no real harm to humans, especially bites from ordinary ants. Fire ants are more notorious and possess a real threat to human health. Aside from the pain caused by the bite itself, there is a danger of allergic reaction and secondary infection arising from it. For allergic reactions, symptoms range from thickening of the tongue to sweating and shortness of breath.

Currently, there is no specific treatment for ant bites. For local stings from ordinary ants, oral antihistamines and a cold compress will relieve the pain and prevent secondary infection. For several ant bites, there is danger of developing an allergic reaction and it is advised that you apply systemic corticosteroid around the bitten area.
