Hi again all?
I seem to be on a roll tonight with the need for knowledge!
For some reason i have the hardy type of skin/blood that isnt affected by flea bites or mossies, but after sleeping out in a tent with the kids on friday night i have a huge bite on my back that is really sore and quite !!!!! with no head to squeeze! i'm thinking red ant or the likes.
I have nothing in the house for bites, is there anything os that i can throw together to make it better? bearing in mind i dont have reactions from other things which makes me think the poision in whatever bit me is more potent than your usual flea etc.

Have you got any savlon??? Works for me!! Or, have you got an aloe plant? My nana used to swear by them for healing anything!!
Sorry can't think of anything else, am sure someone will be along soon to help!

I'm afraid we're not supposed to give medical advice on the site. NHS direct or your chemist should be able to advise you if it's a particularly big bite.May all your dots fall silently to the ground.0
